    Photos Oil and Water

    Well it's been quite some time since I posted some shots in here (other than the shots of my bike last month) as I've not had a great deal of time for photography. Redundancy, application for new job (successful by the way) and the little'un taking up a lot of my time on my rest days (I work shifts) and so on...

    However, I decided to do some more Oil and Water shots (did a few early last year). Bit of Corn oil on some water in a jug, CD placed underneath and a lamp above moved around to give different lighting. Lighting from the lamp was diffused using a reflector as it was causing an imprint of the bulb in the bubbles.

    Here are the results. Colours are all natural with the exception of the last one which was run through a Roscoe Gel Filter in Tiffen DFX. Other processing includes cloning out of quite a few sneaky fibres that got in there, some unsightly bubbles, sharpening and a bit of noise reduction.

    Cheers mate. Use manual focus and just get some of the more prominent edges pin sharp in the viewfinder.
