sparkles
December 4, 2013
This week's challenge is sparkles, selected by Christine. Check out my pals for their interpretations on this theme: Fishing Guy, Katney, Imac, Lew, and Christine Anne.
I have three different kinds of sparkle for us today. The first is from iron filings and gunpowder. Then, I used the in-camera sparkle effect to exaggerate the sparkling effect in water. Finally, we have nice, shiny objects with their razzle-dazzle. The header is a set of wedding bands. I took the shot outdoors, during the rehearsal dinner (picnic). The sunlight was strong and hard, so I used the shade of a big tree, plus a flash that I bounced off a reflector. The background was just a remnant of black cloth that I set upon the grass. It was kind of neat to try a studio-type effect on the spot there, and the family was tickled with the results.

Well done Craver, magic Sparkle, even your dandruff sparkles too,lol.
Well, sure. That's because I put glitter in my shampoo.
Sparkly shots for the theme Craver. I certainly enjoyed all your choices.
That is a nice collection of sparkle - love the sparkling diamond. The bottle rock shots are awesome (and would have the cops around if used them in our backyard).
Hey, wow, these are all great! Love the rings, but I think my favorite is the baptism shot. Great sparkly water plus the symbolism is pretty neat, too!
Great collection of sparkles. : )
oh my word, you're so creative my friend.
what a terrific set of sparkle shots and your header is gorgeous too.
wish you happy weekend!:)
I really like all the sparkles you captured for this theme. Very well done.
