I'm into playing with reflections again using anything I can find at home as a subject to create those reflections. Hubby has all kinds of random stuff in his workshop like these screws of every type of shape and size, and hardly any that are the same, so I couldn't create neat shapes or repititions with them
Came across you shot on the TP and saw that I have done some simalar things to you .. ie gooseberries and Kiwi fruit.. and I love this shot of the Screw City .. fav and follow..
Thank you all for the comments and faves. I'm blown away. @cottiac thanks for the link above. I haven't seen that photographer before, but definitely worth having a look at other people's work. I didn't know that anybody else had called a similar picture screw city, so that is interesting.
@julzmaioro Julia can you point us to the one's you've done? Be so interested to see them! @seacreature Nw's! Just hit me straight away - fab shot you so deserved to make TP & PP!
@cottiac My setup for taking this shot was very simple. I just have a black porcelain floor tile (which unfortunately was not of the greatest quality and it is becoming a bit scuffed and scratched with use and sliding it into the spot where I pack it away). I usually put my tile on the dining room table so it is a convenient height to work at, and drape a black sheet over a piece of board which I prop up between the tile and a dining room chair. Once I have arranged my subject on the tile, I get my cellphone torch or other torchlight and shine it on my subject to create reflections.
@cottiac I will take a photo of my setup before I put it away so you can see. All my reflection shots have been done in more or less the same way. Some at night and some using what bit of daylight I get into my dining room
@seacreature Nw's! Just hit me straight away - fab shot you so deserved to make TP & PP!
Here is one of my shots I did using the black perspex and cape gooseberries.
