Title: Contemplation
Post by: Bob_B on August 31, 2018, 04:40:07 pm
I've had this image in my mind for several months, just haven't had the time to capture it. Please let me know your thoughts, and thanks for taking a look. - Bob

Really beautiful.  And nice work on the tonal range too.

What is the image in the bubble ?
It is large enough to tease, but not discern.
It distracts me from the excellence of the rest of the photo.

Hi degrub: I don't know what the source of the refracted image may be, but I rather like it, as I see a bird's head and wings in it. Thanks for your thoughts.

Very nice photo. In the studio, I assume? It all looks very controlled (in a good way).

Thanks Matt. Yes, it is very much a studio shot. (Balancing that 15 ul droplet on the feather was tough enough in the still of my 'studio'. I can't imagine what it would be like out in the wild.)
