Description
More fun with water...Like I said before, you can never get bored of these!!!
I set up a glass in the sink, filled it up with water, then let the icecubes drop. I missed the cup several times hehehe, but the one that counts is this one, the one that actually hit right on! took about 10-20 tries to get a good hit, it was kind of hard holding the ice directly above the glass and trying to press the shutter simultaneously. Other than that... it was kinda fun with neat and cool results.
Enjoy.

Wow....this is truly gorgeous. Your throwing the ice cubes really paid off. I agree with a person up there, it does look like an ad for Evian...or some kind of water brand. Did you take this in tungsten?

Thanks... I shot it in a custom white balance setting. I did, however shoot some earlier ones in tungsten, but they turned out too blue and over exposed looking..

Excellent shot. I know how hard it is, to "get" the right moment with such art of photos. The lightning is also great.

didn't your mother ever tell you to stop playing and splashing in the water? sigh. oh well, maybe you'll learn from this message
it's a great shot. maybe you need an ass who can drop the icecube and then you can just worry about pressing the button. with age comes wisdom.

Well what makes this stand out among all the water shots is the brilliant composition and the overall tone. Technically you've really nailed it and you've managed to create an interesting athmosphere as well. I like.

Wow, that's one of very best "ice cube drop" shot I ever saw.
The DOF is great, blurring the background perfectly.
Excellent lighting too man, did you use the flash?
Again, well done.

Very cool. I tried making some of these kinds of shots before. It was never as impressive as this. Is the blue added post?

ddsoul In reply to bcheung [2004-01-22 10:19:54 +0000 UTC]
yea.. it takes a lot of patience and lots and lots of shots.. for just that 1!! hehe,
the blue was natural.. although I boosted it a bit in post... I was using a custom white balance setting to get the blue-ish hue.

Oh Wow Harry, this is by far the best I've ever seen from your work. I just love how things work out in this shot, and how the water just freeze in the air like that. This pic really has the Advertising ad feel to it.... and also I love the bluish cold feeling in this shot.. ^_^
Harry, I think you really have an eye for doing "Still photography", not that you are not good at portrait photography, but I really like what I see from your still ones.. ^^
This is making to my favorite for sure.. ^_^ Good work Harry..
Happy Chinese New Year.
