bubbles by pocketmouse

bubbles

This is my first 'get pushed' in AGES, and my challenge from Lorraine ( @lorrainerb ) was to try a soda-water shot, with fruit (or any unusual object) covered in bubbles.

I've seen many beautiful examples of this kind of shot here on 365, but I've never actually tried it myself, until today!

Luckily we had some strawberries and mineral water in the fridge!

(Yes, I did eat this strawberry afterwards.

... And 2 more after that. :D)

Also, a relevant 6-second clip that you must watch: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cCnZYdC73qo :D

Mmm, that looks so summery and delicious. Great pov and unlike others I've seen - you have your own unique touch, which I really like!

Love the tight crop and the intensity of the color - especially the blues you've drawn into the glass.

i was hoping this was the assignment i'd get from you because i've only done this once and I thought it was an epic fail and also because I was planning to do something like this for this week. i like this, the colours are so natural and life-like.

for your push, i would like you to face your greatest fear (or one of them if there's more) and get a shot that you can only get by being stronger than that fear.

thank you, teresa. can i tell you i enjoyed looking at all your photographs? all of them.

@summerfield That is an amazing challenge, thank you so much :) going to be a very difficult one, no doubt - so it'll be interesting to say the least :)

@summerfield Okay so I just had a thought - I am heading down to the ski slopes in a week and a bit - I am somewhat terrified of (but also excited about) skiing, as I am barely a beginner (going with my boyfriend who has skiing woven into his DNA!)... Could we perhaps hold my challenge over til then? I will push myself to go as far as I can with it!
July 22nd, 2013

July 22nd, 2013
