Thank you for your kind words.
Gonna use this as a wallpaper
If you want the full res image let me know and iI'll pop it on a file share for ya. (Also RAW file if that is of any use)
Me too please! Would love the highest res image you're willing to part with. This is amazing!

You're awesome. Thank you!
Very futuristic for me
Would you mind sharing what you shot this with? I love it! It's so unique :D
Sure. I used a lightbox with a blackout curtain (sound flasher than it really is; it's a cheap foldable plastic lightbox that has a few coloured inserts and led lights around the side and top. (I paid about 15€ for it). I put in the black felt insert as not to get any external reflections. You could do the same with a carboard box with the inside painted black). Placed the tablet inside (Was an iPad mini thing) and put some images on full brightness and full screen.
I used a Sony A7 iii camera with a Sony 90mm Macro lens on a tripod. As I wanted the bulb to fill the frame I was quite close to the subject and wanted everything in focus so stopped right down to F20, ISO 100 and exposed for the blacks which gave me an exposure time of 6 seconds. (I am sure the same kind of results could be achieved with a more open aperture and less exposure but I didn't have a whole lot of time.)
I increased the luminosity and saturation in lightroom and lowered the shadows to make it "pop". Then spent twenty minutes removing all the dust spots.
Hope this helps!
Late to the party, but thank you for the thorough insights!
That is beautiful. Is it yours? I love the concept.
Thank you very much. Yes it’s mine.. I did several with different reflected images. Things I learnt - remove all dust and when you think you have removed all dust dust another 3 times. :-) It’s dead easy to do and a good project for a rainy day. This was my first go and will do some more soon.
I enjoy messing about with photography have some other plays I intend to post in the future such as water drops, splash, etc.
Another from the same shoot:
The dust thing makes sense. Again, beautiful photo! Thanks for sharing!
this looks amazing
Thank you!
Beautiful. Also how grumpy are you, @BeardyGrumps?
Many thanks LD and thanks for asking. Made me smile. Lol not too bad today.. Very beardy but pretty chilled for a Friday. Kids and wife call me grumps as every so often I need to go and hide in the virtual man cave in my head to sort myself out a bit. :-)
Yeay!!!! I look forward to seeing more art from you!
Specifically, an led light bulb designed to emulate the aesthetic and glow of a traditional bulb. They're either really nice and a great buy, or super cheap and very dim, and there is no in-between lmao.
Never switched it on.. bought it specifically to experiment and try this out. :-)
Lmao, the picture is gorgeous! Didn't mean to detract from that
Not at all dude!! :-)
Anyone else see an animal in the artwork?
Thought it was a stylized parrot in the thumbnail.
Stunning.
