A pyramid on Mars? Saharan dust over Mount Chip? An alien artefact? The rise and fall (especially the fall) of the ever-elusive neon empire? I simply couldn't think of a title here, and I'm too late in the game anyways. Same procedure as every Monday, I guess ;)
Either way, I've always wanted to photograph this decorative glass pyramid for Macro Mondays. I'd dropped it once ages ago, and the chipped-off tip made it the perfect subject for the "Chip" theme.
The setup was simple, I put the pyramid on a book, illuminated it with yellow (semi-translucent plastic bottle cap) light from the left, red (transparent red chocolate box lid) light from the right, and then held a piece of cardboard coated with a reflective gold colour behind the pyramid so the background would look like a sunset or the above-mentioned Saharan dust clouds. The pyramid itself is of iridescent colour, depending on the light incidence it displays hues of blue and orange.
HMM, Everyone!
