Here is the next oil and water photo. This image is actually two shots superimposed one over the other. In one, I introduced glass marbles to the oil and water mixture. I then superimposed that one over one of the shots that had no marbles to provide a few more interesting lines and color throughout the composition. The marbles are reflecting sky and trees as I was making these photos in a sunroom.

A friend told me about “oil and water” photography and suggested I might want to give it a try. So I googled it, and it did indeed intrigue me. I made this photo by mixing oil and water in a glass pie plate, placing it on a clear glass table top, and placing a colorful ceramic dish on the shelf under the table top (directly below the pie plate). I then shone a bright LED flashlight on different areas of the ceramic plate to create bright highlights. I’ll show more results in upcoming posts.

I somehow missed seeing this photo in my June beach batch. It was a snap through the window of a closed restaurant. Straight shot — no post-processing hanky panky. I see abstracts everywhere…

I found this image during our June trip to Emerald Isle, NC. Captain Blye’s boat wasn’t exactly seaworthy, but I was photographically attracted to the textures and shadows.

I’ve fallen sadly behind in the promise to myself that I would post one photograph per week. So now I’m catching up for three lost weeks. This image is newly created based on a photo I took at Hillwood Estate back in May. A little sleight of hand, and here you have an orchid posing as a poppy.
