Challenge: Breaking New Ground (Basic Editing III)
Camera: Fujifilm FinePix S5000 Z
Location: Home
Date: Jan 18, 2005
Aperture: F 8.00
ISO: 200
Shutter: 1/776 seconds
Galleries: Macro, Food and Drink
Date Uploaded: Jan 18, 2005

 Set up backlight, used glass and a lemon slice. I put the lemon on a knife and rested the knife across the glass so the lemon slice would be in the glass. I then filled the glass up with Sprite instead of water to get the fizz look. I used flash but I held paper in front of the flash so the glass would not reflect it and make a white mark on the photo. My editing process was cropping, adjusting levels, adjusting brightness and contrast, adjusted saturation, removed dust on whole image, unsharpen mask and resized.

I thought very hard on this one. I don't have the best of camera's so I've tried my best.. don't really care how it places, had fun setting this up and shooting it.

This is indeed a great technical accomplishment. Thiese little bubbles are right in one's face. I feel the tickle as they burst. Congratulations on top 20 finish with this "wow" of an image.

This has a very fresh appeal to it. The colors are subtle and the shot is well balanced. The bubbles are crisp and not too oversharpened. This is a fun shot. Good luck.

Do you get this idea from a photography magazine? I tried the same thing and failed miserably :) Nice work!
