Chad G. Posted November 19, 2020 Report Share Posted November 19, 2020 one out of a myriad of pictures, the light, angle, everything had to be just right. Half the time it looked great until I reviewed it on my flat screen. I absolutely had to get a small tripod and a remote to eliminate all vibration and movement and still had a time. I wish they all came out this well. Thanks, Chad G. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You even got the blue in there, Good job !!! Natural sunlight I've found to be the best for av., but at this time of year it's at a premium.

Peltier Mibber Posted November 21, 2020 Report Share Posted November 21, 2020 Super Pelt patch there, Dduck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad G. Posted November 21, 2020 Report Share Posted November 21, 2020 I finally got the blue to show a little better. It's just dripping off this marble but the sheen reflects off the surface and you can't see the blue av. Ahh at least you can see some now. A dimmer daylight bulb and try again later. I don't have a cell or a macro lens so just a little luck every now and then, that and a couple hundred try's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So is blue harder to capture? I will definitely take that marble out in the sunlight tomorrow, and see if I can get some better AV pics. I'm excited to try it.

Ric Posted November 22, 2020 Report Share Posted November 22, 2020 There is nothing like sun to bring out AV, and those are great macro pics, Jess. The Tigers are pretty cool too, Chad - who is making them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad G. Posted November 24, 2020 Report Share Posted November 24, 2020 Yes Ron I seen some of his work and was glad to be introduced to him by someone else who liked his work also, he works a lot but still finds time to make a few. The only polymers I own and decidedly like. Much different from any other polymer work I see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
