Did try to capture the flowing of the water, I'm just amazed how they came out.
I did photoshop them though but did nothing major.

Want to continue with the first shot try to build it into a dripping world of water. This idea is here by copyrighted by me okay

Tell me what you think about the photos and critique is always welcome even the negative ones

Nice shots Stefan
I like the second one best, that blue tone is really captivating
Well done

Thank you Amin.
Now I'm wondering how the hell I did that

Nice work indeed! I like them very much.

Very Nice work Stefan

Thank you, it was fun making them

#2 could easily be a magazine ad.

Yea no. 2 terrific

umber 2 is fantastic! How did you do that??

I really like number 2, I bet it would look fantastic printed out A3 and framed in my kitchen!

Please share your pp secrets, what did you do?

Thank you for your comments.

I did those shot quite a while ago so don't know exactly.

There isn't an awefull lot of pp in them, only played a bit with colours and such but with the whole photo.
I did delete the stream that resulted by me pouring water over the glass.

#2 is done by placing the glass upside down on a plate of glass and behind it a white plexiglass sheet with the flash behind it.
The flash removes the shadows that falls on the sheet and you get the white spot in the background.

That everything turn out so blue is by playing with the white balance, it's a trick used for ages. Using a blue filter to make the shot cooler.

I'm not happy that you don't see the top of the glass in the shot so need to think something about that.
I had it placed on a glass plate upside down but you saw the glass plate and couldn't get that out of the shot
Anyone have an idea?

These shot came together after 3 days in the studio playing with water so it takes some time preparing them. Got 300 shots of glass with water to prove that
If you try to recreate them, really take your time preparing the shot probable and keep on playing till you get it right.
IF you get it right write it down in a book so that you know what you did... i didn't do that so probable spend on hours trying again to remember what i did
