fire and ice - a photo on Flickriver

fire and ice

            Här kommer mitt bidrag till fotosöndags veckotema - kontrast

Bestämde mig för att använda färger (röd /blå) och temperaturer (eld/is) som kontraster. Det var den LÄTTA biten lol! Jag lärde mig två värdefulla saker när jag tog bilden. Ett - använd inte billiga Ikea glass ifall du har en budget (som mig!). Insåg inte foten var ojämn  - speciellt den högra - förrän jag hade tagit bilden. Det andra jag har lärt mig är att du knappt behöver ha knappt en halv tesked diesel och inte en halv deciliter som jag först använde, när jag började att experimentera med eld. Tur att jag gjorde det utomhus, jag fick använda brandsläckaren och städa upp trasigt glas efteråt. 

Slutligen tack till min fru (igen!)  för att hon låter mig sätta fyr på saker, och för att vara behjälplig med rökmaskinen och is släppandet till den slutliga bilden.

Here comes my contribution to fotosöndag's weekly challenge - contrast.

Decided to use colour (red/blue) and heat (fire/ice) as contrasts. That was the EASY part lol! I did learn two valuable lessons taking this picture. One - don't use cheap Ikea glasses unless you are on a budget (like me!). Didn't realise that the stems were wonky - especially on the right one in the picture - until after I had taken the shot. The second lesson I learned is you only need not even half a teaspoon of diesel and not the 50ml that I used first when experimenting with fire. Lucky I did this outside the house but still had to use the fire extinguisher and then clean up the broken glass afterwards! 

Finally a big thank you to my wife (again!) for letting me set things on fire, and also for being on smoke machine and ice dropping duty to get the final image!

Strobist info: One Godox AD200 was used and placed above the cocktail glasses in a gridded softbox (far enough away so as not to catch on fire!). Triggered by wireless remote.
