Very nice, did you use different colour liquids or just changed colour post processing?

Behind The Lens

Location

This photo was taken in my dining room! I haven't got the room for a studio as yet so i make do with what i can for now.

Time

This was taken late at night! As i have 4 children, some shots just need to wait until i have no distractions, or little fingers to move things.

Lighting

Lighting was simple. I used a yongnuo speedlite as a back light with just my normal fluorescent light that is in my dining room.

Equipment

As an amateur, self taught photographer my equipment is slightly limited. The photograph was take using my Canon 650D with a remote trigger, tripod, speedlite pointed at the wall and of course, water!

Inspiration

I have loved photography for many years. When i bought my speedlite i wanted to try some new tricks. A simple google search of high speed photography gave me a great range of ideas. I love the look of the water falling, the bubbles and the overall commercial feel of wine glasses.

Editing

This was processed in photoshop CC. I have a limited knowledge of photoshop so youtube is my friend! To get this result, i simply made copies and adjusted the hue of the original, which was blue. I then made layers and stitched them together!

In my camera bag

I like to travel light, so my bag is fairly simplistic. My Canon 700D with both 18-50mm and 50-200m Kit lenses. I also have the good old nifty 50mm which is a stunning little piece! I also have a manfrotto tripod that is very light and compact but very stable!

Feedback

Trial and error! Keep trying on what you want to achieve and never be discouraged if it doesn't work the first time. Think outside the square, you don't need all the high tech expensive equipment. There are many alternatives to the odds and ends you may need to get the result you are after. Never be afraid to ask questions and research!
