Sunny Side Up
These colors were created by forming an emulsion of cooking oil and water drops on the shiny side of a CD, and then shining a bright light on to the mixture. I used my 60 mm macro lens focused as closely as possible. The colors can be changed by partially blocking the light, and also by using a mirror to change where the light goes. This is fun stuff to play with. This is straight photography (whatever that is), and not created on a computer, although I used Photoshop to adjust contrast, saturation and remove tiny bubbles and specks of dust. It's not possible to go to the Canadian Rockies or Baja California every day.
I've created an album with psychedelic content that can be seen here if you like this sort of thing. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets
More of my emulsion art images can be seen in my Emulsion Art set. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157625787156195/...
I first saw this technique, done brilliantly, here. www.flickr.com/photos/jane_in_wales/sets/72157623079913402/
If you enjoy this type of image, you might not hate my Drops/Bubbles set. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157625432239555/
