rakish crown by northy

rakish crown

this is for my other push this week... set by Jan (@macromover)... she challenged me to create an unusual water crown...

soooooo... i set the kitchen tap to drip over a plastic ice cube that was sitting atop an upside down wine glass... shot with my macro lens... processed in lightroom and inverted in photoshop...

i did get a couple slightly better crowns, but kinda preferred this rather disreputable looking one :)

(might look good on black... or, y'know... maybe not!)
@macromover - thank you for the push... these are difficult and i am tempted to work on this some more - but likely not this weekend...

This is great Northy. Sorry I have only just seen it. Really clever. I am so sorry. I fully intended to try to meet the challenge you set me but completely forgot. I will work on it but it isn't going to be in time for this week's challenge. How did you do this crown? It is really effective! Fav

@macromover tx Jan... most of how i did this is in the description above... but really, it was just an idiotic amount of patience and perseverance...
December 7th, 2014  
Sorry, I completely missed the detail in the description as was busy looking at how you had done the shot. Very creative and well done for meeting the challenge.
