Project 52-2-41 Subject: Liquids
Posted By: mithrandir, 04-14-2010, 09:11 PM

For week 41 we will again be concentrating on shooting a specific subject. This week we want pictures of liquids. Your choice of kind. Your choice of setting.

(Pictures for the week 41 competition are to be taken and posted between 20100418 and 20100425).

NOTE: We have two Seasonal competitions planned for the last two weeks of year two. You may take pictures for these anytime between 20090705 and the posting dates of 20100704 or 20100711. This way you can include your favorite holiday or season whenever it occurs during the year.

Rules:
1. Anyone and everyone who is interested in eligible. The goal continues to be
have fun and share comments, concepts, insights, and techniques with fellow
Pentaxians.
2. Each week will feature a Theme and Sub-concept for you to explore.
3. Post your single picture in Project 52-2 thread for the week. Explain what
motivated you to take the picture and/or how you feel it represents the weekly
theme.
4. Some post-processing is OK (adjusting white balance, exposure, color
saturation), but let's try to stay away from heavily PP'ed images here. Try to
keep the creativity to photographic techniques and the captures themselves.
5. Since this project is about technique, and not camera, shots taken by nonPentax cameras are allowed. Cameras can be SLRs, DSLRs, Point & Shoot and Medium Format.
6. There is one “Theme Concept” labeled “black and white,” but feel free to post
black and white, sepia, monotone, etc., for any of the other themes.
7. The picture you post should be taken during the week in which the theme is active to be eligible for judging.
8. Any picture taken from 20090705 to listed closing date is acceptable for the two “Seasonal” competitions – Projects 52-2-51 & 52.

I was drawn to this because of the way the H2O molecules combined and moved through the O2 together.

Drops - a lot of drops:



This does not qualify for the competition as it was not taken during that week.

Love the wine shot Frank - Classic!

Had a few balloons left over from last month's exercise so I ran thru a few tonight. Fun because they never look quite the same twice...

OK I give up! I just apent a couple hours in some nice sun and with remote flash (even) trying to get something decent. But I but kept remembering Frank's skillful wine pouring and Renses droplet of liquid metal. No way I can even get close to that! As always it's lovely seeing what people can do that I cannot.

...Sounds familiar to me
I gave it a try four days in a row and I am still not completely satisfied, but I am running out of time, so here is my entry!

Just running water from the tap. Taken with my Panagor macro 55mm.

Just running water from the tap? No I think you have made it much more than that!

And while I'm writing, I love the "back to basics" icywarm shot. Not so basic though, methinks!

I missed out on entering the following shot by one day. Took this last Saturday so it does not qualify. But I can hardly plan another day-long outing just to try again. This is from my Kilkee Beach series. (Two people suggested I post it here.)

82* F was the temperature determined by a liquid within a liquid . . .

I love the tap water... and the balloon, but what is the shadow... my dirty mind sees images in it?
