Caffeine Injection [Explored]

Something I need most mornings! (Not with the needle though)

 

Had to improvise the set up on this shot. I didn't have a syringe so used a darning needle of Lindsay's. Next problem: how to stick the needle in the bean (word of warning if you ever try this, don't push to hard or the bean will shatter and you will end up on the pointy end of a sharp needle and a hole in your thumb), next problem how to get the needle horizontal and take the shot. Solution: stick the other end in a handy onion and balance on a table top. The light bokeh behind the bean was achieved by the lighting: a well placed LED torch that illuminates both bean and shines on the curtain opposite, the real trick was keeping it all stable to get a steady shot!

 

HSS!

HMM!
