Hot hot hot...

Something quite different for me today, have been drying these chillies on a windowsill this week. No good photo opportunities today so thought I'd snap these and try a processing experiment this evening. Not sure it really worked, but its all a learning experience.

This is on fire!!! Great photo idea and result!

[Shepherdman's Wife]

Gosh, they look as though they'll blow your head off! Take care! Love the pop of red against white!

[Chippy Minton]

Simple yet so effective, love the punchy red

[joey d.Muli]

Hot- !! btw,-just wanna say thanks for everything :)

[Allison]

That's what I like about this project, you try things you probably would never try. Very striking.......I love the red against the white.......hot hot hot!!! :-)

[Paula W]

Works for me, I think it's great. Congrats on trying something new.

[Joey]

Agree with Allison. :-) Great shot

[Sharon Simpson]

Really good shot! I've tried several times with my chillies and haven't been happy.....something about those chillies!

[KWind]

Cool processing.

[Babs]

Great shot. Love the processing. Hope you washed your hands after taking this photo!!!!

[John Mausolf]

I could see this being an album cover for The Flaming Lips.

[Vijay]

just burnt my eyes viewing it ... those are really hot ...you've definitely been succesful with the experiment ... nicely done!!

[bkb in the city]

Very well done

[Joy's Focus]

Actually looks like an art poster. Very nice.!

[John L]

I love the (strange) impression of movement here - chillis becoming tadpoles...

[Custodia Baptista]

Great ideia! LIke the processing.

[Sem]

it is a very interesing effect, i bet that little on at the bottom is the hottest!

@allisonraposa thanks, yes, very much a departure from my normal style (returned to that today after this foray!), but having seen so many amazing still life and set up shots on this site I'd really like to try some more and learn how to create the sort of stunning images I've been admiring.

[Ian]

@paulaw thanks Paula, need to learn a lot more about lighting these sort of shots etc. but was interesting to try something new.
