Rhubarb and Custard

Does anyone remember those boiled sweets???

 

It’s been a fairly frustrating week, not had a chance to get out with the camera! Hoping to go out in London after work on Tuesday, although the forecast looks poor :-(

 

I tried using some different liquids for a few crown shot sessions in December, it was a struggle to find a liquid with the right viscosity to get the crown that I was after, for this I used a combination of double cream and water!

Although this wasn’t the shape that I was after it was close enough to what I wanted and besides this session got cut short as I spilt the red food dye all over the kitchen floor, I wasn’t very popular after that incident :-)

 

Sorry to keeping posting pictures of liquid, but I do find it great fun. I’m also acutely aware that most of my recent ‘Liquid Art’ pictures are red in colour, I’ve got another session planned for the coming weekend so I’ll make sure that I try and use a different colour which shouldn’t be too difficult as all of the red dye that I had ended up on the kitchen floor and our socks.

 

Got to dash out so I'll catch up with your streams later :-)

 

n.b I do have a blog on my setup and how I got there but it is very raw and still needs a lot of work, although it should give you an idea. If anyone has any tips that can help me improve it please drop me a line, it’ll be very much appreciated
