Have you examined your AF setting to continually track? And obviously you have set
the shutter for rapid shooting.

I've done a few on metal at MPIX.com. Really turned out well. Mostly now I get them printed on metal paper. You get that depth on that as well.
MPIX has been my go-to.

I knew Erv about 10 years ago but lost contact. Sounds like he is making progress.
Thank you for the update

You may take or make an image. Unless you print (and slightly more than 1% of images are printed) then you have approached the Print.

The image OOC is better, IMHO, than the PP. I have 2 questions. Why are you using a JPEG and not a RAW (NEF) image for PP, especially since you’re are using a D850 camera?
Secondly, have you considered a monochrome image?

Can you be specific with your description and add images? Thanks! Yes I am interested.

Linda:
Excellent questions. IMO, you've developed a new strategy for dealing with rude. There hasn't been any rude replies to your excellent questions. Perhaps only a few opinion preferences that differ.
With respect to Q#1, "technically perfect" is non-existent. Even the master--you know the names--were seldom satisfied with their initial images emerging in the wet darkroom. Even for them, "burn and dodge" was required. Now with digital images, whose to say, for some excellent appearing image, that it should have been shot F4.5678 but rather F4.5680? Or, 0.001250 seconds instead of 0.001235 seconds? Technically perfect is more of a term to describe a "mission".
Two persons, unless they are identical twins, will see the same image differently, given the same viewing environment (lighting, positioning, etc.). Again, also consider that there are billions of colors in a colored print.
So, from my perspective, the image has to create a an emotional connection to me. I've mentored others in the past and my advice to them has always been an image that EMOTES and is satisfactory technically will be a wall-hanger for atleast them, and maybe others.
Consider this fact from a month ago. A woman, using a smart-phone camera, captured a NYC policeman handing a new pair of boots to a homeless man. It was technically lousy. But, it certainly spoke volumes of feelings (yes...I know the rest of the story--but that was a different night)
If it's art you're after, then make it connect with at least you.
Linda, BTW, I enjoyed viewing your moving lamp photo. That's art (to me).

Good to hear that. Were you using Win 7 prior to this? I'm wondering if I should wait until Win 9 arrives as I have Win7 pro.
