excellent work


Nigel Watts   {K:10748} 9/9/2005
Wonderful photograph, looks like someone sat down shading their eyes, and their feet in a bowl of water

Linda Bique   {K:74033} 9/10/2005
Wow Laurie this is cool, I see a person laying there do you? Yes Nigel sees it too, whew....wiping sweat from brow...A wonderful abstract, nice angle, what is it...food coloring in water, I like it, very nicely done...Linda

Great shot Laurie, I see a person there too :) Can't wait to see the others.

interesting image... like the composition.. great work


Dirck DuFlon   {K:35779} 9/10/2005
What a fascinating experiment, Laurie! Yep, I see the reclining figure there, too - one hand shading his eyes, the other across his torso, reclining and gazing out (to sea, maybe?) Clearly this sparks the imagination of the viewer!


Petal Wijnen   {K:47835} 9/10/2005
Neat idea.... it's whatever you make of it... sort of like a Rorschach test!!!! Wonderful in B&W!!! Good tones, could be a bit crisper... but it's hard to focus on fluids so I'm totally happy with it as is.... well done!!!


Roberto Okamura   {K:22842} 9/10/2005
Beautiful abstract Laurie!
I like this water effects!
Best regards!
Roberto.


L. Gould   {K:11900} 9/10/2005
Linda,
Yep, it's food coloring in water. I used a dark coloring so I would get a nice contrast when I converted it. I plan on trying this in color as well, but I like the black and white because it draws attention to the shapes (in this case a person). :)


Linda Bique   {K:74033} 9/10/2005
That's what I thought it was. I bet you'll get some really neat ones in colors, wonder what a mix of colors would do, not blended but just poured in and maybe swirled around gently, that person is amazing really...great work...Linda

Wonderfull abstract shot Laurie, very cleverly thought out.The hue is so wonderfull


AJ Miller   {K:44891} 9/10/2005
Lovely shot, Laurie, and I'm really flattered by your "about".

Yup, I can see the guy lying there!

I see a couple of comments on the sharpness. I have had similar problems and find this really tricky when shooting from above. I'm trying to find an appropriate container to get some of these shots from the side, which should resolve the problem (although to be honest I'm not sure it really is a "problem").

Looking forward to seeing more!

AJ

Beautiful and very creative!


cessy karina   {K:14205} 9/11/2005
intriguing picture, Laurie
very nice abstract, full of imagination
it looks like a chinese painting with the ink


L. Gould   {K:11900} 9/11/2005
John,
I'll be interested to see what the new container does for sharpness. But, I'm happy with the level of sharpness on mine and I thought your image looked great as it was. :)


Alastair Bell   {K:29571} 9/12/2005
Yep... I'll go with the flow here... definitely someone lying down and looking in to the distance while shading their eyes...
Excellent shot and personally I see nothing wrong with the clarity and sharpness....

I bet you had loads of fun doing these!!!

Alastair
