i was at my farm(bush) on the weekend to alpha. My camera decided it didn't want to play anymore though after the second day. Canon have 3 weeks before i go to japan to get it back to me, i'll be one angry bluelighter if its not. Thanks for the comments though. here's a couple of shots from my farm before my camera decided to play up.
1. Background - Black cardboard. This particular set up is fantastic at making any creases in a cloth background show up in your final image
2. Smoke - A $2 bunch of incense in a holder on a trestle table. The Table was also covered in black cloth.
3. The camera was on a tripod with a 300mm lens and a shutter release cable.
4. Flash - 90 degrees to the incense and angled slightly towards the camera. (I experimented with it directly behind the incense as well which gave some good results too)
^ I quite like that first one of the trees. It's got a trippy feel to it.
ACID... love that effect. Can you link to some bigger versions? (I feel the urge for a new desktop pic coming on.) And also one without the colour, just to compare?
Well I am new here sand I am dying share some of my pictures with you all. But alas, I have to wait until I have made 20 posts or more before i can post piccies.... oh well. I am currently working with an IXUS, but hopefully (very very soon) will be moving on to a DSLR... anyways any opinions/critiques will be appreciated. I have been sort of more concentrating on macro and abstract textures at the moment...but will most likely delve into deeper waters once i get my hands on my dream camera :D
