Cool. Where did you take that?
Thanks. :) I did it at home: I made the model with a heavy sheet of paper, placed it on a tin foil, then I've added on the top a leaf butterfly (Common Brimstone, Gonepteryx rhamni) for a better dramatic effect. I shot it with the camera on a tripod, in a darkened room, illuminating the subject with a red and a blue light.

Love it, that's proper nerd-tastic that is :)

I'm having fun here trying to get perspective into flower shots. It's a kind of a fun exercise. That was yesterday

Not feeling very creative at the moment so had to dig up an old one....

I loved that room, it was part of art gallery in a Spanish fort in Almeria. I sat on the floor at the end of the room for an hour or so just watching the light and the reflections change, taking shot after shot (God Bless Digital Photography!).

Have to admit, ran out of inspiration a bit this month:

Great contributions as always, love that Clifton 404 shot... and this... wow this pic is extraordinary! I feel like I'm staring into the hadron collider x 2001 spaceship x architecture... the constrast, angle, framing surpass all other efforts I've seen of this. :winner:
