Turning Bowls

I was inspired "telepathically" by @espyetta to shoot turning bowls. I thought she said burning coals, hence my shot in my Everything Else album today. http://365project.org/grammyn/everything-else
Now I think I have it right! ;~}

[Peter de Graaff]

What a great shot. Not sure how you did it.

[karenann]

Struggling as I am with manual, I won't EVEN ask how you did this amazing photo. Stunning. :)

[Jenna Pemberton]

Inquiring minds want to know! How DID you do this? :) FANTASTIC shot!

[Marilyn Wigen]

Wahoo! Fantastic shot! :)

[katy]

@peterdegraaff Thanks,Peter! magic?!

[katy]

@karenann LOL! I appreciate it KarenAnn ;~}

[katy]

@jennabug Thank you so much.

[katy]

@marilyn Yay! Thanks!!! I have missed you. Everything OK?

[Phil]

Now I know what you meant by you had to go set up a shot. Good job!

[katy]

@after12 Thanks. ;~}

[Mike O]

So creative!

[katy]

@trumpetman Thanks,Mike. All the credit goes to @espyetta! ;~}

[Anne Hansknecht]

SPILL the secret!!! This is cool

[Debbie Orlando]

I know some of the new cameras have this capabiility. I was watching a presentation of one on HSN (Home Shopping Network) where you take multiple shots and the camera puts them together. Is that it???
It's really a cool effect no matter how you did it.

[katy]

@annehans LOL! Thanks, Anne. I will tell after a little while longer! ;~}

[katy]

@debsphotos That sounds really cool but that isn't it. Is it wrong for me to be enjoying this so much?

[Darlene]

Love it. I was wondering how you shot this also. So, spill it.

[katy]

@debsphotos LOL...................sorry.

[katy]

@darsphotos Thanks, Darlene. I want to wait until a few more people who follow me see it before I spill it. ;~} I am having fun with it for now.

[katy]

@debsphotos I think i deleted your "mean" comment sorry. I want Robert and MaryBeth to see it before I tell. I promise I'll tell tomorrow if no one guesses.

[Reem F]

Hmmm... I'm stumped! But very neat effect! Can't wait to hear how you did it :)

[Jennifer Wearing]

It's either one fo those multiple shots or a whole lot of BluTac or sticky plaster behind the scenes :-)

[katy]

@reemo Thanks, Reem. I appreciate it

[katy]

@jennwearing I had no idea this shot would create so much interest.

[Debbie Orlando]

@grammyn -- I saw the process when I first started the project and, go figure, can't remember.

[katy]

@debsphotos LOL! did YOU delete your comments? There were two on here that aren't here now. I can't figure out where they went.

[MaryBeth Dailey]

OMG! I am eating lunch and checked this as I gulp down a salad...about to run back to get the kids from the cafeteria! I LOVE it! This made me SMILE a MILE! So glad you finally "heard" me right. And I cannot wait for the tell all about how you did it! Looks like magic to me! But you said you'd tell when two people saw it....I can wait! :0) and....nice job! btw, I checked out that bamboo stand on my way by it yesterday from the lake...uhm, NO! It is thinned out now and only tiny little trees of it. And private prop I think. So.....that is not going to happen!

[katy]

@espyetta LOL!!! I am so glad you like it. Just as well about the bamboo. I found out this morning that MY bamboo made it to the PP (I have no idea how that happened) so if you shot some too it would just look like you are copying me. ;~}

[MaryBeth Dailey]

@grammyn Well, I telepathically feed you your ideas every day.....can't a girl copy sometimes? Haha! :0)

[katy]

@espyetta Well...................OK! LOL

[katy]

@peterdegraaff @debsphotos @espyetta @jennwearing @karenann @jennabug @marilyn @trumpetman @annehans @darsphotos @reemo I had so much fun shooting this and then seeing your comments. Thanks for being so patient with me for the explanation. Jennifer Wearing came closest to guessing. It is four bowls propped up on each other. I used a spool of thread to prop the second from the right and and the rest are being propped on each other. Thanks again for the interest and comments!!!

[Marilyn Wigen]

@grammyn Very cool... I wondered if that was the "secret"... well except for the spool of thread part. :)

[katy]

@marilyn It never even occurred to that anyone would think it was actually only one bowl!

[Debbie Orlando]

@grammyn -- you had me fooled. Especially since I saw that new fangled camera that will put movement together in one shot like this. Love it, Katy. You deserve a huge FAV for this one. (Sorry I didn't fave it earlier...I was baffled!)

[Anna]

very cool!

[Jennifer Wearing]

@grammyn Wow!! Good on you for this photo- it's kept us all guessing. BTW the black background looks fantastic:-) I'd be interested in knowing how you did that... Is it a sheet or something else?

[katy]

@debsphotos I didn't know my camera would do that! That is so far ahead of where I am! I thank you for the FAV and appreciate your interest, Debbie!

[katy]

@nyusha Thanks,Anna!

[katy]

@jennwearing Thanks so much , Jennifer. The background is a black velvet dress-up dress from my grandchildren's toy room.

[Debbie Orlando]

@grammyn -- Oh, I'm not sure your camera will do that. I just mentioned it cause I saw a presentation of one that does on TV.

[Debbie Orlando]

@grammyn -- That process, by the way, is for like someone running. You snap successive pictures and then the camera puts them together on one shot. I know my camera doesn't do that. It's a point and shoot with some fandangled features.

[katy]

@debsphotos I'm reasonably certain my camera WON'T do that and even if it did........operator error I am sure! ;~}
