A random Weblog

This photo was produced “in-camera” meaning that the only help from Photoshop was to crop the image and apply a little sharpening. So how did I get the splash effect, well it’s a secret  OK, not so secret. The wine glass was filled with colored water as real wine would have been too dark. The glass was taped to a piece of foamcore and the foamcore board was rested on some wheels so that it could roll to the right. I focused, killed the lights and rolled the foamcore into a stack of books. The dead-stop caused the liquid to spill – and the noise activated a sound trigger which fired a flash pointing at the wall behind the glass. Then I closed the shutter, turned on the lights and checked my work.
