    I like the fullscreen idea, but the photos need work. Looking at Snow Leopard Conservation and Parasite, for example. They look like they were shot on your iPhone.

    You used a Canon Rebel and a lighting rig?

    Most of the photos appear to show the noise of a high ISO. If you're using some sort of studio lighting, you should have enough light to shoot at ISO100 or 200.

    The color is poor, too. It looks like you used mixed lighting, or ikea lamps. Re-shoot using a single type of light (you'll need to match the monitor's color with the color of the lights,) then white balance correctly or shoot RAW and fix the WB in Photoshop.

    Overall they aren't very sharp. You might want to rent or borrow a macro lens.

    For the photos of the laptop, it could be better to photograph the laptop while it's shut down. Then you could place screenshots of your work on the laptop in Photoshop. Of course, you'll need much better photos of the laptop for it to look real.

    • I shot indoor with lighting setup on ISO 400 and the noise was much greater than I had thought you could get at 400. re-shot the whole thing down at 100 and adjusted lighting appropriately. muuuch better.MrNibs

    • Yeah. I was considering taking out Parasite and Brainwave Synthesis because those can't be reshot. The snow leopard project is up at the Philly Zoo and I need to reshoot.enkayes
