Ssw some neat light coming in the window next to me, so i thought I would take advantage. Took WAY too many frames to get to these two, but I suppose thats how ya learn!!
C&C always welcome.

Love how light just does magical things!

The little light shimmers remind me of old Window's screensavers ... toasters anybody?

Trippin' on the light. Cool.

I like the second one, but I wonder; why not include the top of the glass?

I was working with the light coming into the window, and trying to block the glare. I took a few with the whole glass, but the light on the top of the glass was worthless. In other words, I couldn't get a shot that showed sparkles throughout the entire cup, and I didn't like the composition enough to bother attempting to make it work.

Realizing perhaps this was a mistake. Unfortinetly I have no clue how to replicate this with flash. Hopefully I can catch it at the same time tomorrow!

Flash will probably obliterate the light on the bubbles.

What about this?

Designer · Aug 3, 2014

Oh, say! Now that is better! Thanks.

Will your Df work in "tall" mode? Isn't that on one of those sexy dials on the top deck? I like this kind of hey, I saw this, I shot these pics give and take on a forum. Good eye, Jazzie, fun to see something that somebody else "saw" and took the time to capture with a camera, and then share.

Thanks Derrel! The colors were pretty cool. I actually used my nex for this since the long lens seemed to work better for what I wanted.

I'm wondering if that light will be back tomorrow. I was paying so much attention to shooting that I forgot to figure out how the main light was. The colors were being bounced off of a CD back though.
