1 ‘Sunrise in Outer Space’ by Gary Peal
“I took this shot following your project on shooting oil
and water in issue 237. I set up my iPad with a multi-coloured
screen on full brightness, placed a box of pasta at either end,
and (dangerously) balanced a jug of water across the boxes so
that the light from the iPad shone upwards through the jug. I
added oil in gradually and waited to see what shapes formed,
then applied a polarising filter to my M. Zuiko macro lens to
create some abstract colours (using a tip from another previousissue). Before long, the large bubble formed and I shot several
images, all handheld at f/3.5, moving the camera in and out until
I got as sharp a focus as I could get. Editing the shot afterwards,
I spot-healed the large bubble to get the smaller one out of it.”Digital Camera says: We love to see readers getting inspired
by projects in past issues of the magazine. We love this shot,
a stunning contemporary colour with the red and black, and
the smart use of an iPad to introduce the coloured light.52 DIGITAL CAMERA^ MARCH 2021 http://www.digitalcameraworld.com
