AWESOME ! Im glad I´m not the only one who is experimenting like that ^^

I want some background info. did you do the colors with different lights or did you colorize the water? or post editing? What cam / lens did you use and the ABOUT settings would be interesting aswell. shot with / without flash? if yes , internal or external?

HAHA there you go some questions to prevent you from becoming bored^^

There was absolutely no post op on these. The water wasn't colored. The color in the shots mostly comes from WB settings. The green crown coloring came from a gel on the flash. The gradient crown came from a printed gradient (Replaced the white sheet of paper). Wireless flash (Sb-900) shot from the corner of the pan to a white sheet of paper behind the pan, bouncing the light back towards the lens. Camera settings were: f/11, 1/200, I think 100 ISO. Flash was wireless as said, and was 1/32.
