[Photo] - "Blue Beer" - 9/5/16

I spent most of the day testing out some new ideas for some lighting setups. The main goal was to use a setup that was mostly different to what I am used to in order to manipulate the background of the image. The following image is the result of todays experiments. Hopefully in the upcoming weeks I can use this technique to get some nice results. 

New Photo Series - "Aqueous Motion - Volume 1"

After seeing quite a few examples online I decided to experiment with underwater ink photography. It took a while for me to find the correct ink to use in order to get the effect present in the images, but after a few hours of research I finally found the right kind of ink for the job. 

The following five images were created by dropping acrylic ink into a flower vase. I than captured the flowing cloud of ink by using a flash and a very fast shutter speed. After I went through about 100 test images and a few gallons of water, I managed to pick out these five as the best images. 

Im still experimenting with this technique, so expect more in the near future. 

Below are the five final images. Enjoy, and let me know what you think. 

[Photo] - "A Splash Of Blue" - Final Edit

About a month ago I posted an image titled "A Splash Of Blue". I was not happy with the initial results of the image which has prompted me to revisit it a few times over the past few months. After re shooting the bottle I can now say that I am happy with the final results. 

Below is the final version of "A Splash Of Blue".

Here is another photo taken as a part of my portfolio evaluation class. 

I had a bit more trouble with this one than normal. I ended up with at least three versions of this photo that I was not happy with. After getting some feedback from my professor I finally decided on this version, which was a lot different than my original idea. 

The entire image is a composite made out of at least five photographs. All the images were combined within Photoshop to create the final effect. 

As always, any feedback is greatly appreciated. I am currently looking for ways to improve this one, so it will likely change a few times before the semester is over.
