Early use of new Tamron 90mm Macro lens.

Drips

Well were are getting to the last of my villages folder, so not too many more images to post from my trip to France. These are all pretty much photographers photo's (the general public exchange puzzled looks and give you a wide birth).

I used very pale gray and beige watercolor drips. then put India Ink drips on top and blew them with a straw. My hubby liked it best upside down! Looks like trees.

Always looking for something new to play with, I came across this site that explained how to photogragh water droplets. (Well at least it explained how to get started and play around.) The site is strobist.blogspot.com/2009/05/how-to-photograph-water-dro....

You need an off camera flash with remote. As instructed, I used my 580 speedlite with remote, in manual mode set at 1/16th, and the camera on 1/200th with an apeture of f8.

The blue water is done using a white background and white balance set to tungsten and the red water is done using a red background. Can't wait to try some more.

Water droplet. First go!

He's so good. Calm, stays there till the drip is over, I don't even have to hold him, he knows he shouldnt move.

Love this pic and particularly proud of the subtle reflected sig :)

on the brolly of the water feature in the last image.

Supuestamente en la espalda dice driper :L xd pero no se ve 77!

This one came out of a search for spheres for cwd202, the first image being a dripping tap, taken in close-up with flash. The second image was just there, a combination of the way the flash reflected off the water and a bubble-less area caused by the drips. I couldn't get over how much it looked like a dog, freaky or what?

I lightened the first image in photoshop elements with just one pass of the 'colour-variations' filter, the second image is un-touched.

Here is a small drip of aluminium. I'm guessing that when I get into the furnace I'll find lots more inside.

Water drop

Water dripping into the pool. Hamilton Pool, Austin, TX. Lomo Frogeye.

I dusted off my macro lens and decided to have a little practise after a rainy morning. I have so much to learn about macro but really enjoy the end result. even if it is not perfect.

Drip Photo Experiments

One of the many swans on Dorney Lake, was a tad chilly this morning.

Action For Jackson - by Bethany & Joshua. On Friday, July 12th, 2013 we released our custom "Drip Ribbon" Dunnys, Munnys & Trikkys as a blind box benefit for Bethany's brother and sister in-law, Mitchell and Amy Jackson. They have gone through many hardships through out the past few years including the current battle against breast cancer.

Our goal for this benefit, "Action For Jackson", was to sell these custom vinyl toys not only as an awareness of breast cancer but to give all the proceeds to their family to help pay some of the medical bills.

Blind Box Quantity: 15 Micro Munnys, 10 Dunnys and 5 Micro Trikkys. 30 total.

This is the result of dropping a piece of spiral pasta into milk length ways.

Dropped various different things into milk in different containers including coins, pebbles, drips from a spoon and malk lid, pasta and blackcurrant squash.

More experiments with water droplets.

My lovely man bought me flowers a couple months ago and they stayed alive for the longest time. I was really sad about having to throw them out so I put a select few in the freezer and photographed them a few days later.

There are a lot of these rose photographs and some are similar, if you think there are photographs that are /too/ similar and should be taken down, please let me know. It's really hard to get an unbiased opinion in my house :)

Once again we had a very busy and full day and no opportunities for photo taking, so I got my daily fix by shooting off a few water drop shots back at the room... boring I know :)

I typically upload in small sets - don't just look at the latest one in my photostream as you might be missing something you'll like more.... and your comments are ALWAYS welcome :)
