Fifth photo of mine to get Explored! Currently at #100!!
Check the comments to see the set up shot!
Now THIS is the reason why I bought that glass rose! This photo is actually going to be used for one of my assignments at school, but you know I would have done this either way because its such a cool idea hahaha. Now this is something I'm really happy about, I like the way it turned out, though just like a lot of things this ain't an original idea, I'm not that creative hahaha. This is my atempt at a photo someone else done here on Flickr. I saw it a few days ago while looking for a good example for my assignment and knew I had to try it out myself.
This photo is a composite... If you couldn't guess. The green stem and leaves are made up of 6 photos and the flower itself is made up of 11 different photos, so its a 17 shot composite. Another note to mention is the fact that this photo was taken upside down and I just rotated it so the water looks like its flying upwards. Well this was a fun and messy shoot, also an expensive one hahaha what with the $80 glass rose, I was pretty worried that it would fall and break on me during the shoot but luckily it didn't.

this is genious! Did you take many pics while the water was dripping and put them together in photoshop? was it allways the exact same angle?
I love it so much, you deserved that explore!

A composite yes but I still have no idea how you really did this. It's some kind of alchemy, I'm sure! :D Brilliant stuff. (Found you via Pinterest)
