Refraction how to for Marina

Dalantech

Now that the 4th round of The Last Photographer Standing is over, and I placed third, I can spill the beans about this photo (I didn't want to talk about it before the judging was over).

I wanted to find a simple way to do a water drop refraction, as the drop falls in front of the subject, that anyone could do (no special equipment or complicated settings). You can read the how to here: http://nocroppingzone.blogspot.com/2007/04/frozen-in-time.html

Back when I was first experimenting with this style of photography you asked me for a "how to". I wrote it shortly after taking the shot, but didn't want to post a link to it until after the competition was over.

I was sitting in a chair when I took the shot

It's a lot of fun, and the results are pretty cool.
