So this was quite the task. When you need both hands, one for squeezing shampoo bottle and the other for catching shampoo, it's pretty darn hard to take a pic. Camera on tripod, and I used my wireless remote sans hands. Putting it in my mouth and trying to press the button with my teeth by biting....yeah it's REALLY hard. HaHa! Also since I was using my 50mm (that doesnt AF with my camera) I had to focus on an object, mark the spot and try to match my hand spot just right - *sigh* I didnt' get what I was going for before my battery died. Time to recharge.
Wow I love the twisted smoky look as it hits your hand this is a great shot.
ReplyDeleteNice moment you captured with the motion. I love the blue background, really makes all pop. Your series is looking so good. Very professional quality. Go Dd!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat were you trying to go for if this isn't it? I think this looks great, and the odd smokiness of the shampoo makes for a very interesting pic! I think it's great! But would like to see what you were aiming for if you end up redoing it ;)
ReplyDeleteCoolest pic of jizzied ever! :P Awesome shot... happy mistakes are the best, no?
ReplyDeleteBrilliant capture of a mysterious moment.

Oh, so my camera isn't the only one that 'coincidentally' says its battery is drained only when I've finally got everything just-so after tweaking based on all the previous not-quite-right shots? :P
ReplyDeleteThe difference in lighting between the falling shampoo and the puddled shampoo makes them look almost like two different substances... great way to show more of a subject, that.
Wow, I love the whispy smoky look in that falling shampoo/conditioner. The whole shot works very well and was well worth the effort. Self-portraits are a total pain!
