the descent

[echoyjeff222]

Trying something new. Took awhile to figure out what composition I wanted, and took even longer to try to assemble everything together! Also, it was a pain trying to hold the flower still with the wind blowing around >.< Anyways, this is the first of a few that I'm attempting, all around the theme of water drops. I have a few with refractions in the drop. Again going for a high key, simple type shot - kind of finding that's my preferred style now.

thoughts welcome!

So, here's my very crude setup. I was just inside my garage to get nice lighting, setup a white cardboard-like thing in the background with blue construction paper taped on, and taped the leaf on the side of a plant dish of sorts. Then I just filled the dish with water and put the flower in the water!

Oh the joy of construction paper Worked well. The best thing is that the setup is different then i would have thought.
