Wendy (@wenbow) challenged me this week to shoot a water splash, in colour (yikes!)... After a miserable four hours attempting a water drop shot last spring, I swore I would never do it again... but it occurred to me that I now have a macro lens, and I have light, and it might come off a little better... technically, this isn't a splash, so I don't consider it to be my push photo... but I liked it, so I thought I would post it anyway :)
Thanks for all the lovely comments on my back alley shots from yesterday... I found it so interesting to read why different folks prefer different approaches to the processing of that image, and why!
@wenbow - i've been practicing for a water splash... no splash here, and i realize you didn't limit me to size (meaning a swimming pool or puddle sump shot would work too), but i wouldn't have done this were it not for your push, so thought i'd tag ya anyway :)
Argh... Pirates galore on 365 this week. Nice drop. You did well. I can only commiserate you about water splashes after spending the same amount of hours trying for them myself last year! You have the makings though so I'm sure you'll pull it off.
Fantastic focus & colours. Love the jolly roger theme
& you captured it brilliantly in that water drop. I find these fun when I have a go and you are right they are frustrating. Looking forward to seeing that big splash from you. Thanks for my challenge, love the old movie style of pic, don't know how I will go but I will have a fair crack at it
