yep, you got the shift in the salt pot there. Great job. I'm really struggling with my challenge - trying to find a dark enough place is tricky - too many street lights where I live...and my house isn't that big...got loads of ideas, just need a spot and a friend (for safety) to help me!! I might try a light trail shot in traffic for the moment and bookmark the full challenge for a few weeks when the evenings get darker and I've got more chance of shooting early evening instead of 10pm!!
@sparkle Thank you for this challenge it was a good one for me. It really was a push for me too. The drops, crowns, and refraction shots are all things I will try more of in the future. I agree the light will be easier when it gets a bit darker. The traffic trail lights are fun to do and have a cool effect. I've used those glow sticks when it is dusk and not real dark and they still had a cool effect but you did see other things too since it isn't totally dark. Also, inside you could trace around an object or have light coming out of an object - I think I'm getting some ideas for future shots too now. I've also seen those Spirograph looking images. This has/is a lot of fun and I will be following your shots - again you are a great photographer. Would you ever consider hosting a camera settings challenge in the future if we need someone? The winner selects someone but doesn't always know who to go with. I have a list and I would like to add you if that is something you are interested in. - let me know.
@tigerdreamer Yes, I completely agree, I love these get pushed challanges since they are customized personal challenges. I love looking at your photography and I can see growth in it as well. I know I'm learning & growing.
@kwind@httpgeffed@cottoncandy@julie@summerfield@abhijit@swilde@simon0128 Thank you all so much. As you probably know I don't comment much on my comments since this time is limited and I would prefer spending the time looking at your shots. I really appreciate all the comments & encouragements, and suggestions too. These push challenges have been a lot of fun and some are very tough but I think that is the idea and we can become better photographers by them.
