Great idea, and extremely well executed!! I really like it.

That said, I'm finding the remnants of the dot pattern a little distracting in the bokeh in the wider stripes (mainly at the top in the blues and magentas). But outside of perhaps shooting at f/2.8 and focus stacking a bit I'm not sure how you could have executed it differently without a wider piece of backing paper. Maybe at a duplicate layer, apply blur, mask and paint in the blur as needed. Like this (done in PSE11 - not sure what you have available to you)...

Really nitpicking to even bring it up, because it's a well executed concept and a fantastic shot.

View attachment 88591That is so creative. I am loving the effect. You are innovative, and inventive. Keep up the clever photography. I may try to duplicat this, I hope you don't mind.

Go for it Wendy :D It is not my original idea after all ;) I hope to do some more of these sorts of shots, just need some different shaped vessels/glasses now. Had the idea in mind for ages but had no suitable backdrop. Found some last weekend so bought 5 rolls of brightly coloured patterned wrapping paper to use :D

This shot got to 700 last night on Pixoto. Only stayed there for a short while but not bad for not yet even being on there 24hrs. Quite chuffed!! :D

Very nice Vixen, it looks like two layers, one of water drops and then the trees, am I correct?

It's actually the reflection of the trees in the creek. I just turned the image upside down. I didn't know if anyone would pick it :D No-one has yet (posted in other places)

Congratulations Vixen. I can see where this idea can create many more stunning shots. I will have to check into Pixoto also. Thanks for all of the great information. You ROCK!!
