Location
I took this at home with my grandson as my "assistant."Time
AfternoonLighting
I used a small LED panel light directly above the glass, all other lights in the room were off.Equipment
Camera-Sony A7R4 Lens - Sony 135GM Shot at f/2.8, ISO 400, 1/1000, 135mmInspiration
I was looking for something fun to shoot with my grandson at home and searched the internet for interesting pictures. I saw something similar but I thought I could do it better.Editing
I cleaned up the edges around a few of the bubbles a little bit, removed a few imperfections that were present in the glass, and removed some noise. Finally I cropped it for a more pleasing presentation.In my camera bag
I shoot almost exclusively Sony, both camera and lenses, but I do also own a few Sigma lenses. Almost all of my lenses are G-Master. I own the Sony A7R4, A7R3, A73 cameras.Feedback
Set up and lighting were critical. It took some experimentation and several different shots to get the look I wanted. Adjust the lighting as needed. Use a tripod and a timer (or a remote) to trigger the shutter, and focus manually..
