Lightbulb
Another quick mess about - Been meaning to have a go at this for a while (in fact I've saved this lightbulb especially. Wanted to practice with different lighting to see what effect minor adjustments to position and power made. Only had a few minutes spare so went for hand held (didn't help) but learned a few things. Processing seems to have introduced a lot of artefacts and will need to look at the workflow here to try and figure out what I did.
Setup was pretty simple - Lightbulb an LED torch and the iphone (using a softbox App) for a bit of fill on the bottom of the bulb.
The torch was directly behind the bulb (to give the impression that it is turned on) Shutter was 1/40 or thereabouts at f4.0
A better lens would have helped here I think, as would a tripod and a snooted speedlight instead of the torch for a pin sharp bulb rather than the grainy one I got, though in this case I think the grain almost works quite well.
