Challenge: Transparency (Classic Editing)
Camera: Nikon D1
Location: My \"studio\" (ok - back bedroom)
Date: Jun 30, 2002
Aperture: F20
ISO: 200
Shutter: 13s
Date Uploaded: Jun 30, 2002

Quite a simple shot to set up. I supported a glass dish over the top of a 60 watt inspection lamp and covered it in black velvet. The sundae dish went on top of this and I darkened the room a bit so that the majority of the light came from shining through the bowl. The fruit were prozen in ice cube trays for about 24 hours.
Yes, you read it right, it was a 13 second exposure so I had to use despeckle to take the noise out.

I love it! It took me a moment to figure this out, but not typical at all. I might have titled it "Frozen Fruit" but we're not grading on titles. One of the better shots this challenge.

very nice! I love cherries... I wish these cherries on the left could have had a little more light to make them stand out a little more... good work! = 8 - jmsetzler

I had started with a bunch of complaints about the bowl/challenge, but just figured out the ICE is the transparency. Coool idea, literally. I think it works best for the strawberries. Photo 9 Transparency 9 total 9 swash

Excellent shot! Where on earth did you get the idea for this? I like how you've lit this and find the entire concept creative and pleasant.

Nice layout, though I've never seen frozen cherries/strawberries.
