Late at night here in NZ 1/6/07 .....been a long week at work and I'm tired. Making coffee, adding sugar and ..............inspiration struck!! Didn't say it was great inspiration, but it made sense at the time LOL
Lots of usm cos it was handheld at 1/30. Cropped and played round with channel mixer, curves and levels. At ISO 800 didn't need to add grain :P
On 2nd look it's very blue .... kinda matches the water on tv on the Louis Vuiton yacht racing...........
Just a spoon full of sugar keeps the medicine away! I really like the feel of the blue. Very cool!!
Or helps the medicine go down. A bottle of medicine in the background would top this off nicely. Personally I'd like to see the crystals frozen as they're falling, but the transition from still to in motion is interesting too.
Yes, very blue, hard to believe it wasn't intentional! I agree with the comment about individual grains and grains-in-motion in the same shot. Very good composition, *maybe* a little overexposed on the top of the sugar. Dark frame sets it off nicely.
I think it is very interesting how you can see the individual grains in the spoon and then how you have the action too. Nice job. I think the blue is pretty in this shot.
I really like this; all the bits and pieces fit nicely together, from the toning (I don't usually like blue toning, but here it works), to the granules still on the spoon, to the motion from the pouring. Composition is strong, too. This is something I've seen people do thousands of times (I don't put sugar in my coffee), but probably never really saw. Nicely spotted and captured (even if it was late :P ).
