Explosive palate/palette!
The Trevor Carpenter Photo Challenge, 2021 Week 27 Wine Glass: My initial thought was to shoot the wine glass on our dock with the sunset sky giving color to the contents of the glass. When I saw how many neighborhoods in our area were shooting very high, sophisticated fireworks, I changed my mind about using the sunset as the backdrop and focused on catching fireworks around or "in" the glass. Although I had several photos that I liked, in which the fireworks were simply blurred flares of color, I then did a composite of a photo in which the fireworks burst was sharp and one in which the wine glass was sharp. I liked that fairly well, also, but in the end because I'm a little weird and I like the unique, I decided to use this image, which has a number of filters, brush work, etc. The glass is filled with water, as I didn't have any wine on hand.
Both the wine glass and the fireworks were shot at f/5.6, 1/25, ISO 2000, just after the sun went below the horizon.
