Oh what do you do in the summertime...

I would reccomend trying this when you DON'T have 3 kids on the table...but, eh, if you never have a second like that, then it's as good a time as any. ;) They were interested in my jerry-rigged (jur-rigged?) boom stand and baby bottle. So it was a good way to entertain the littles for a few minutes.

Wow, the amazement continues!

These pictures are beautiful--but I have no idea how you did them! I can't figure out the baby bottle at all--spinning in the water?? Anyway, it doesn't really matter, as the effect is great.

That is pretty cool!

Kathryn said...

PS - you are officially Megan's IDOL, by the way

I should have take a shot of my set up. Darn.

So I had a glass baking dish on the kitchen table. And my camera was on a tripod right next to the table. Then I had my boom stand (it is like a tripod with an arm that holds a reflector)hanging over the baking dish. I had, very clumsily, tied a baby bottle upside down on the boom stand and then was shooting the drops of water. So you can't see the bottle at all. But the kids were most intriqued by that part of the set up.

For the background there was a plant in some and a hand towel propped on an hymn book for others. (Yes, I know I have very fancy props. ;) )

And wow Kathryn! 'Cause Megan is MY idol! She is just an amazing young woman. The kind one either wishes SHE could have been as a teenager or the kind one hopes one's daughter will grow up to be like.

WOW! That's all I can say.

So, when will you be offering photographs for sale? Seriously, I would totally put these up in my living room, if I just knew how to artfully arrange them!
