Started on plan a, wound up on plan d doing a macro study of some dry ice in water.
After 3 hours of shooting, checking, relighting, different angles, shooting again, checking, and going through the process over and over again.
After a Gawd load of images, not one I liked and wound up erasing, I finally got one image. One measly little spark of possibilities.
Used a 300w lamp studio lamp to get the look. Used a strobe to get some edges.
RAW=Levels, WB
PS= Levels, curves, Crop, USM to sharpen, USM to contrast, color correct, Save, reduce |

sorry, but as a photographer your job is to convince me.
photographically, this is a nice picture. However, I am not convinced that this is science.

This is what they call an "abstract" for those that can't tell, or want to know. |

I really don't have any idea what is going on here. Not that that matters to me! I love a good abstract. I imagine you are getting some crappy scores from all of those abstract haters out there, and I'm sorry about that. I'll counteract them a little. :) |

Exposure can be better and it needs to be sharper. I can't tell what this is. |

very cool, I like it. I really like abstract photography, but I think its often very underrated here at DPC. Kudo's for doing something different than the norm! |

Is this an ice cube with burning alcohol? Really difficult to tell. Possibly adjusting your white balance would improve this. I think using a more symmetrical cube would look very cool. |

I can only imagine how difficult this must have been to set up. I'd be interested to knew exactly what it is. Unfortunately, the focus seems a bit off, enough so that the subject is not easily recognizable. |

If you are not going for a brown, I apologize and know that I'm always here to help..
If you are going for a brown, I am going to pray hard this week that you trip over your shoelaces every time you try to walk.

very difficult to see what's going on here, with the blur. a higher shutter speed and more light may have fixed this. good idea though |

Whassis? Seems like something from a star trek episode. :-)
Looks like it was tough to photograph whatever it was. |
