Description

These are 2 objects I really appreciate together. I've already seen many beautiful versions of this image here. This is my humble contribution.

My main problem was to make Thor's Helmet as sharp as possible.
Adding to that, shots were taken during 3 days in town center on my balcony with big aperture (2,8 mm) samyang 135 mm. As a result : grey skybackground (even with filter), flats problem and so on...

All that, implies lot of hours on photoshop.
