One Night Stand--High Key "Fish"

Ok, so sticking with my all-manual, sooc (with crop), here is my first ever attempt at "high-key" photography. I took my tea kettle out into the sun and used my white (stains included) carving board as a back drop. I realize that reflection is probably not the best idea for high key, but I loved how the spout of the kettle from side view looked like a fish coming to the surface to get some tasty morsel (I'm imagining a mosquito--eat em all fish!). I also hoped to capture some of the sky (looks like I'm in there, though--sigh). Thanks again for the challenge. I'm doing this as a break from grading, but back to work I go! http://365project.org/discuss/general/17025/one-night-stand-four

@jo13 Thanks Jo. So much to learn, but this was fun. I'm going intown tonight so I have to take my camera to capture something more urban (I'm in the Suburbs of Atlanta). :)

@darylo Can't wait to see what you come back with, haven't done much night shooting, that's a whole new lesson, and a tripod!

Your rockin' this challenge with your sooc! Great image! I see you! :)

Great image, excellent work ! Is that not the blue sky in the upper right?
The only high key I ever shot was strictly by accident. LOL

[Danielle]

Wow, very cool high key shot.

@orangecrush It's a spin on the selfie...by accident. :)

[Daryl O'Hare]

@foxsparrow Yes, there is the sky! I know what you mean "by accident." Who knew I was doing it too? LOL

How did I miss this one yesterday? Lovely shot Daryl. I love the way that you have captured the metallic sheen on this "fish" spout

[Daryl O'Hare]

@steampowered I can totally see how you'd miss it--you are a very busy super photographer! I really appreciate your stopping by, though, and I always appreciate your comments! :)
