Challenge: Once in a Blue Moon (Advanced Editing I)
Camera: Fujifilm FinePix S602Z
Location: my pool
Date: Jul 31, 2004
Aperture: f/11
ISO: 200
Shutter: 1/2500
Galleries: Abstract, Water
Date Uploaded: Jul 31, 2004

 shot in bright sun w/ white balance set @ tungsten.
adjusted levels, cloned out some unwanted reflections, cropped.

Had tons of fun in the pool w/ a giant purple beach ball. The white balance mis-adjustment gave me the colors I wanted, with a bit of level adjustment. I was amazed I didn't get the camera wet!

Nicely done - simple idea with a real "wow!" look to it. I like the deep blues and the reflection in the ball makes it look like a planet hovering in a nebula. 9

Owie, that is very, very good. The ball looks so smooth and the tones in the ball and the water are just perfect. Outstanding!

Great composition! I love the texture of the ball and the reflection. The drops on it are cool. The colors are great. The pic is a big grainy though, especially in the dark areas of the ball. Good border.
