Silver - Awesome August by alia_801

Silver - Awesome August

Silver is a tricky colour to capture! It either looks black or white! This is the best I could do, with a chocolate bar wrapper :)

(BTW, yesterday's pic was for 'walking' but there were lots of other good ideas too :) It's a bit like 'choose your own sport' :) )

You've captured it really well with the shape and shimmer! Must go find me some Lindt......

You have really held the texture well in this shot. Not the easiest subject but this shows it so well.

Very well done! I agree... silver is hard! You've done a great job. Your sports shots are good... you've stumped me on a few! lol

Great idea photographing your chocolate wrapper. Did you get my email? I'm not sure if I sent it to the correct address. If possible can you please contact me nlstone at yahoo dot com. (no au). Thanks :)

Nice texture! Shiny things are so tricky to photograph some times.

Lovely

Very cool! Lots of fun patterns and textures in the wrapper too. I think many of us would like to receive this kind of reward!

It looks great and I like the patterns on it.

You did fine. Looks great . Did the chocolate taste well ?
August 6th, 2012  
Nice pattern & texture! Great silver shot.

Great silver for the challenge.

Great job. I had a tough time finding something, too. I have to ask what wrapper has the fleur de lis?

wonderful textures and macro!

@yonnie It's Alprose Swiss Dark Chocolate :) (Usually I buy fair trade chocolate, but this was a gift)

gorgeous!

It looks silvery to me! I like the fleur de lis on the material. Very pretty!

my comment from yesterday got lost again? aaargghhh!! i've seen this wrapper before i just couldn't remember which chocolate bar it was. it does come out as silver. it's as silvery as you can get. great shot! i especially love the fleur-de-lis markings. i went to a catholic university, ran by the st. vincent de paul society and the fleur-de-lis is part of the university's logo and it is also the flower associated with st. vincent de paul.

i fiddled with a large silver tray in the morning but i hated that it reflected everything in the living room including myself and the camera. i was so tempted to go out and buy a chocolate bar, too, but when i was about to give up late in the evening, it came to mind that i have two silver lockets somewhere in my bedroom. duh! i'm a hoarder, i swear!
