Warped Geometry (9410)
This abstract image is one of several table shots taken indoors after setting up my studio using both of the crystal sphere's I've used quite a bit outdoors. Using a geometric background I wanted to see how the globes distorted the pattern. The lighting turned out to be quite tricky, due to trying to get enough light for the shot while be concerned with glare and the reflections. This was a 20 second shot having turned around my studio lights in an attempt to "bounce" the light off the ceiling rather than off the glass. Still there were shadows, glare and color distortions that are evident in the image. Overall a fun learning experience that has me looking forward to using my new tabletop studio setup a great deal!
Shot with a Canon 70D camera and a Sigma 24-105mm lens. Some editing done in Photoshop to remove dust spots and to adjust white balance.
Setting: ISO 100, 35mm, f/22, 20 sec
