The Radiant Edge - Series 2 [EXPLORE]

I liked how some of last week's water-misted CD shots turned out, but I wanted to create shots that filled the frame more than those prior attempts.

 

Using a sophisticated series of oven mitts, I propped up a long-neglected "Summer Cruise Mix '05" CD on my stovetop at an upright angle instead of laying a CD flat, then tried to work carefully to ensure less cropping was needed.

 

It was a lot more difficult to get the droplets to stay in place at an angle, and it limited the DOF, but I think it made for some pretty cool shots that I didn't have to crop too badly.
