Something Different

[jstp]

Hi,

I decided to try something different from the water drops I have been working with of late. I saw a pic on a work forum of a magazine folded the same way I have it, although the image was different in every other way, and that set the mind to thinking about different ways to present it. This photo is the end result of the thought processes.

Cheers

It's a nice concept with great use of color but I'm having trouble determining the intended subject. Is it the bow or the collection of bright lights?

Hi Mike,
My intention is to focus on the folded magazine. It is a work on progress and I need to work on the lighting more

Cheers

I have to say I thought it was gift wrap ribbon Jason.

It doesn't really matter - it is different, you made an effort and succeeded.

I wonder if shooting from further back and cropping from the middle of the image would lessen the 'lemon shaped bokeh' effect on the lights near the edges of frame? Just an idea.

HTH,
