Lemons

The last splash picture, I guarantee! The fish tank I used is being dismantled this evening so I had a dabble this afternoon. I have nothing else to put up for today, this is all I have. No comments needed, I had such lovely feedback yesterday:) Will try to produce something original tomorrow.

[John Sutton]

This is original and interesting 🙂

[KWind]

Very cool! i like the yellow frame!

[Phil Sandford]

Like this. Very clever

[Bep]

Very interesting, love it!

[Carol]

Fish tank! Of course! Wondered what you used that was large enough. I must try this before I give my tank away.

[Jorlam]

i really like the reflections in these images and the turbulence of the water too.

This IS original - cannot be repeated, ever.. totally unique..

the yellowy/lime has a totally different 'feel' to the red/orange of yesterday.. Both very good - just different.. it is good to see the difference too.. Thanks for posting both.. 💗

[sally agnew]

I love how you have captured the reflections, very creative :)

@johnsutton @kwind @phil_sandford @gijsje Thanks very much indeed, your comments are very appreciated.
@cmsch52 Do try it Carol, it is serious fun if you don't mind getting soaked:)

[FBailey]

@jorlam @hermann Thank you both so much for commenting. I used a bit of Photoshop here I'm afraid. It's called the Mirror Box effect and Gavin Hoey did a YouTube tutorial some years ago. I've seen a couple of excellent examples on here recently and thought I'd play around with that too. I thought it gave it an ice cube effect. Sadly I am not as clever as you give me credit for:(. But I very much appreciate your feedback, thank you!

[Ivan]

Creative...

[FBailey]

@ivan Thank you!

[Dawn]

Fabulous

[FBailey]

@dawnee Thanks so much!

[Mark Kosobiecki]

Very cool. I wonder if the neighbors would mind if I went over and used theirs! :-) There is always the pet store too.

[FBailey]

@mkoso65 Thanks very much! You could use a large glass vase or beer glass and try cherries and ice cubes ...

[Karly]

Love this shot too - it looks so refreshing. Would make a good drink ad:)

[Mark Kosobiecki]

@fbailey Nah....I'm sure the neighbors won't mind. I have the key. LOL

[FBailey]

@365karly1 That is very much!

@mkoso65 Hope you miss those fish! This

[Jessika Panteleios]

So very creative and cool! Great water movement and yellow frame.

[Jane Pittenger]

This is wonderful

[Shy Abel]

Love it

[Connie Little]

Wonderful collage of these fun, creative shots. Love the yellow.

[Carol]

@fbailey
Can I ask what settings you used?

[CC Folk]

Interesting captures! It's fun to experiment!

[Delwyn Barnett]

Some interesting water textures you have captured here. Looks like fun experimenting!

[FBailey]

@cmsch52 I had to use Manual mode which is very much trial and error for me. It was an 18-55mm lens on a tripod as near to the glass as I could get it. F/5.6, 1/800 sec, ISO 400. Focussing on where you intend to add the fruit or veggies is key (used a teaspoon in the water here) but actually getting objects to go in that spot is not so easy. I also used the conservatory on a bright day as I don't have an external flash. If you do have one you can get some spectacular results with black BG. I still fiddled with the contrast and brightness because the wall behind is pale grey and looked dingy. Hope this helps and look forward to seeing your pics!

@jessikapanteleios @jgpittenger @shylaine3304 @littleconnie @gardenfolk Thanks very much for such lovely feedback, do appreciate your taking the time to comment:)

[FBailey]

@dkbarnett Thank you! It was a bit of a learning curve but such fun. Water everywhere, especially on me!!

[Joan Robillard]

Cool

[Lisa Pouncy]

Very cool. I was going to ask about the reflections but then went back through the comments and see you have explained how you did it. Very effective xx

[haskar]

Fabulous

[tony gig]

Great effects and shots...Fav

[Carol]

@fbailey
Thanks Felicity.

[Roy Hughes]

Still looks so difficult, still looks really good! Fav.

[Pyrrhula]

A great series of beautiful pic.`s. Well done.

[Catherine Otley]

Really cool! Love the way you show the sequence of the fruit going in.

[FBailey]

@joansmor @psychographer @haskar @lynnz @merrelyn @peadar @megpicatilly @tonygig @royrj @pyrrhula @redandwhite Thank you all so very much for such great feedback, apart from getting pretty drenched in the process, this was a lot of fun!!

[FBailey]

@dkbarnett Sorry for missing your name off - thanks very much indeed for commenting, this project is really getting me way out of my comfort zone!
