not for the royalty by summerfield

not for the royalty

i was taking water crown shots earlier this afternoon when i was getting desperate for a photo for my get pushed challenge. i almost forgot how to set the camera up for this but it came back to me after a few failed attempts.

maybe one day i shall try the milk and strawberry shot but i really don't like playing with food i can't eat afterwards as i feel it would be a mindless waste. maybe i shall do a motion shot of chocolate thrown in the air and i catch it with my mouth. yeah, good luck with that, summerfield.
You captured some good ones!

I think that's a brilliant challenge with the chocolate - you would have to take lots of pictures to get it right! These are like jewels, these pictures of the crown!

I'm curious about the milk and strawberry shot now! All the crowns look look amazing.

Hi, again. Many thanks for my challenge - not sure which to choose - but this sets the standard for me if I choose option 1.
I've just been looking at your photos - what an amazing collection of fantastic photos. Please continue with the lightning of there's a storm - but I don't think I saw any high key portraits. So, Option 2 - a high key portrait - doesn't have to be a face.

Adore the green one but sorry now focusing on that chocolate shot, when can we expect THAT shot? ;0)

Lovely! You could always do strawberry and cream and then eat it afterwards. The chocolate idea is also very interesting!

I hope there will be no harm of the chocolate for your shot ;-)
Great crowns, those things are hard. Love the different colours.

This is awesome! I need to keep trying this so I can get some of these. Well done.

@olivetreeann - so glad you liked it. i was getting frustrated as i couldn't sync the camera with the water drops. partner thought i was insane! thank you, ann.

@maggiemae - thank you, maggiemae. one day, when i'm in an insane mood, i just might do it. :-)

@678tabby - been wanting to do that for quite a while, but i feel guilty playing with food. the strawberry, partner can eat but we both do not drink milk. thank you, june.

@jocasta - :-) thank you. did i mention i am so afraid of lightning? :-) had a cousin who died for being struck by it.

@claireuk - tee-hee! there will be a lot of chocolates to be devoured! thank you, my friend claire.

@salza - i'm lactose intolerant and get reaction when i eat strawberry so it would be wasting food if i do that. but i will find something else to do maybe. thank you, sally.

@atooner - thank you, amy. no, no chocolate would ever be harmed!

@shutterbug17 - thank you, jennifer. it's a good feeling when you get even a water orb in the air with your reflection on it.

@catsmeowb - thank you, camille. i did the colours using "tint" in ribbet otherwise they would just be plain boring water crowns. tonight i might do smoke. might.

@summerfield Oh no, how horrid! I'm sure your creative mind will come up with something suitable!
July 29th, 2013  
Really good crown shots.
July 29th, 2013  
@salza - surely, one day the idea bulb would lit again. thank you, sally.

@henrir - thank you, henri. much appreciated.

@summerfield Well, I'm glad I didn't suggest lightening - look forward to seeing the high key

Cool shots Vikki. The chocolate idea would be a lot of fun just seeing you attempt it :)
