It's been a busy week and it's Sunday morning and Oh sh___! I need some pics. I tried a cup of hot coffee and I couldn't see the steam. I need a light source and dark background. Sorry but this is gonna take some time. I hear it's not easy.
We're heading out this morning so I'm kinda bowing out this week. Here's a study in still life. I liked the BLUE theme throughout the setup.
I actually had a few minutes to try different flash applications. I have a popup flash on my camera and I did one open shot. It was too bright and left shadows. Then I covered the flash with paper towel one layer and then two. One layer diffused the light in this one shot real well and gave a nice even light everywhere.
Gotta run so I'm publishing early.
Sorry,
Burr

I like your effort anyhow Burr!!! You are so right - the whole challenge was NOT easy!!! I still love seeing everyone's creativity and in this case your 'substitute'. NICE.
ReplyDeleteBTW - I'm still 'finding' faces all around my house....... :-)
OOOps, good recovery anyway Burr.......
ReplyDeleteGreat interpretation, I'm glad you had fun! By the way, what in the heck is "agave", and how is it used?!
ReplyDeleteYou silly girl....Agave nectar is a "substitute" for honey. It's a sweetener. LOL - search around Jonathan's cupboards and I'm positive you'll find some so you can take a little taste!
DeleteLow glycemic index sweetener. Put it in your coffee.
DeleteGreat tip with using a paper towel to diffuse the too bright flash!
