In all honesty, this effect was not planned, it kinda happened and I loved it. So I shot more frames ☺ <br /><br />Okay, here’s what I did: Placed the drink on a table close to the door, in the AM, leaving the door wide open. The white backyard wall with the bright sunlight served as the bright background for my frames. There was not much light in the room and the subject was not lit from the front—it’s under exposed. Basically, the background is brighter than the foreground. The camera was in auto mode, with the flash off, as usual. Before shooting the pic, I pointed the camera at the white background and pushed the shutter half-way down and then brought it back to the frame to release the button. Left the frames uncluttered for a classy effect—-nada details in the background highlighting the silhouetted drink. Though in one frame with a partial silhouette, you’ll notice the shade from the tree in my backyard garden.<br /><br />Once again, thanks for all the appreciation!Platefulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14622462860173201879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1690493185063802438.post-7164954030735857472011-05-17T11:47:49.639+03:002011-05-17T11:47:49.639+03:00It's always a treat to see photos.....Adding c...It's always a treat to see photos.....Adding condensed milk is very new to me...love to try this version....Clicks rock...simply love them....lubnakarim06https://www.blogger.com/profile/10059426730180521823noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1690493185063802438.post-21918530347168762422011-05-17T11:47:23.935+03:002011-05-17T11:47:23.935+03:00Your pictures are truly out of this world and gorg...Your pictures are truly out of this world and gorgeous!
