Challenge: Once in a Blue Moon (Advanced Editing I)
Camera: Sony DSC-F828
Location: Kitchen table
Date: Jul 31, 2004
Aperture: 5.6
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/50
Date Uploaded: Jul 31, 2004

 Laid a blue backdrop underneath my glass kitchen table. Water droplets make up the text. Shot was taken under natural lighting indoors in the afternoon.

Post processing included colors and contrast adjustment. Some cloning was done to remove small specs of lint and dust from the glass surface.

Sorry chief, didn't see that shot until AFTER I shot mine. And even then, who the hell cares.

What was your light source for this picture? What did you use to apply the water to the glass?

The left half of the "B" isn't as discriminable from the background as I'd like to see. I like the depth effect created by holding the glass a bit above the surface below.

Great composition. I really like this one. Seeing the caustic refractions projected on the background by the water is really cool. It would be nice to see more highlights on the letter "B" though, most of the highlights are one the "UE" part. Also, the B is slightly out of focus in the near corner. Focusing a little closer or increasing the DOF would help. 8.

Good idea but the technique can be improved.

nice reflection and shot. the anti-aliasing (grainy look) is a little distracting. Looks like an album cover.
