Project 365: Day 206
"DoubleStuff Splash"
Much better and more detailed LARGE, so press 'L' and I'll give you a cookie...
Having never done a 'splash' shot, I've been wanting to do it for some time after Matt made it look so easy, and the fact he did it with all the commotion at the same time. :)
I'm actually pretty happy with this splash, especially since this particular splash was take #1 of 2 takes. The second is pretty good, and I'll probably post it as an outtake. For my first time? Yeah, I'm okay with it.
While the background is pretty bokeh'd, I think a less busy background would be better. Also, a little more DOF than I got with the 3.2 would be good as well. Maybe f/4... but that's only because I'd like more of the drops in focus. Maybe it's fine... Anyway, this shot had a bit of a cloud over it from the start when I discovered my wireless trigger stopped working. Even wired mode it did nothing. Fortunately, I could reach the camera shutter and still drop the cookie, but it made it tougher to drop accurately for sure.
A new remote is on the way.
All in all, not bad for my first ever splash shot.
And yes, several doublestuff Oreos were harmed (eaten) in the making of this image.
