Click for a slideshow!

I've got a list of improvements to do before the weekend. :-S

Interesting. Looks like you used on-camera flash for all of these, right? If you like to do this kind of thing you should probably set up some off-camera lighting, or bouncing your flash around in different ways.

*double-take*

Was that a drill?!?

bwahahahahahaha, yep... we ran a drill in the fish tank!

Tomorrow I'm buying a few 5500K bulbs for some desk lamps and rather than taking pictures at 1/250s with a ~1/1000s flash pulse, I'll try very bright lights and 1/8000s shutter speed.

Good, experiment with the different lighting. Other things to think about...

1) Colors (purty)
2) creative use of shadows on the water. I'm thinking wave shadows, but maybe other shadows might be cool too. *shrug*
