It may look easy but actually it's not! The usual tutorial like the picture below will ask you to setup your studio, to use a dropper, something to hold the dropper, any liquid, colored ink or paper, etc. etc.. etc:

Wow it looks so complicated!! What I did?? well I am lazy and stubborn so:
1) I searched for the room in our condo with the best lighting and realized that it's the bathroom in my room so location.. check!
2) dropper?? nah.. i used my faucet so liquid dropper check!
3) anything to hold the water.. I'm already in the bathroom so I used my scoop and my pail, so check!
4) colored paper or ink to make the liquid pleasing to the eye when photographed.. mine? my scoop is green and my pail is blue.. so color.. check!
5) photographer's bestfriend for this challenge...tripod!! check!
6) wiper... yeah you need this very badly the water will get in your lens!
Well that's all, check some of my work... they may not be the best I know that, but I am proud of the result!
Best to describe this challenge?? back breaking and fun!! Try it!!

Nice challenge. BTW, I love the set-up. I will try it one of these days. Let's see if I can time my shots properly.
ReplyDeletegoodluck!! for sure you can do it.. hirap lang sa DSLR coz your lenses are quite expensive hirap pag laging nababasa... gamit ka ng transparent sheet to cover your lens para di straight sa lens ang water.. ;)
DeleteI love the idea and the set-up! Galing!
ReplyDeleteI like the 6th picture sis. Besides cooking, photography is one of my frustrations. I just couldn't time my shots well and it ended photoshopped most of the time :-)
