Chandelier

Thanks for your comments/favs on my flower droplet shot from yesterday. My secret was to use a syringe to place the droplets. It's very controlled that way and easy to get the shape you want.

Today's shot is one of desperation. I was determined to get something usable today but the weather was grey and dull and I left it too late so the light in the house was bad. I tried numerous things with no luck and then I started searching my daughter's room for something worthy. I looked up and thought her chandelier and its reflection would do the job. Best viewed against black.

Love the patterns and shine! It was so gray here today too!

[Smitha]

Very pretty composition!!

[Milanie]

Well, aren't you clever! Your crop and pov and catching those reflections - just great. And never had to leave the house. Thanks for the hint about using a syringe for water drops - will remember that.

[Taffy]

I really like the contrasts you created here! Shapes, and shades of gray.

[Elizabeth]

Great shadows on the ceiling!

[Nicole Campbell]

That is a gorgeous light. It has been overcast and raining all day here today too.

[Barbara Webb]

Love the composition and the shadows created by the light. We have had nothing but rain as well!

Not quite the chandelier to swing on but more perhaps a swinging chandelier to brighten the day. A lovely capture.

Great shot of a really cool looking chandelier. I really like you water droplet idea, too. Thank you for sharing.

[Mickey Anderson]

What a neat Chandelier, Its great with the dark background!!!

[Dave59]

The crop and the mono really set that image off. Great find at the last minute, too!

[Janet B.]

Your desperation led you to a wonderful image full of interest. The light, pattern, reflection, composition, black and white treatment...there's so much to love here. Clever shot.

[Shari]

Great shot. Love the pattern or wall paper which echo's the pattern of the chandelier. For a desperate shot, you found a winner!

[Beth Shepherd]

Cool shot and I totally hear you on the "gray and dull weather" which is what I've been facing for weeks as well.

[Lesley Chisholm]

Another lovely black and white.
