Pencil Reflections_DSC1242

I was struggling for inspiration this afternoon after being out without my camera for most of the day. A tag search for pencils showed this neat idea by @leonbuys83 back in 2013, so I decided to give it a crack. There's plenty of room for improvement.

Nice reflections.

So creative and I love the colors.

[KWind]

Very clever! What a great image!

[Richard Hickey]

Cool picture.

[JackieR]

Fabulous!! I just could not get sharp focus!! Lovely

[Debbie]

I like it Merrelyn. This would be a great subject to try focus stacking on, so that all of the pencils are tack sharp.

[Lynda McG]

Nice effect!

[Poppo Livy]

That's pretty neat Merrelyn

Fascinating - still working on how you did this.

[Merrelyn]

@milaniet The pencils are lined up on a piece of black perspex and the reflection is in the bowl of a salad serving spoon that was resting on them :)

[Gayle]

Fabulous image! So happy to read your explanation of your setup because I couldn't figure it out. I'll have to give this a try! :-)

[Babs]

Very clever shot. I love the reflection of the pencils on the spoon.
