Artist's Comments

Today I'd like to write a little something about the photos I take and why I take them.

Personally I see myself as a learner still, I'm constantly finding out new things to do with my camera, learning about lighting, contrast etc. There's a gazillion things I want to try, yet at the moment I'm limited to a few things (I don't have a car to drive around the country and take amazing landscape shots, I don't have any fancy lenses, I don't have a studio). So this picture represents one of the many things I've always wanted to give a go.
I know there's thousands if not millions of these pictures out there, just about every macro photogrpher has tried their hands at them. Now I have, too. It's a learning experience for me. Will I be taking another shot like this? Probably not, but never say never.
I need to try things in order to understand them, in order to understand how things work and how other people create something. :)


Anyway, enough of my ramblings. I used [link] to edit this, since I can't use my beloved Photoshop since my laptop is still being a bitch. Thanks for looking, faving, liking, disliking, etc :heart:

This piece is so gorgeous. I love the warmth of the colors. I know it seems like this is just another one of those darn water droplet pictures, but you really seem to just make it your own. The glitter is so much fun to just stare at and all of those colors are just beautiful. You really can stare at this all day long. It's a great piece of artwork to hang on the wall. I can see it on mine already. You did a really beautiful job and I really hope you continue with this kind of work in all aspects and styles and anything else you put your mind to. We'll still be here watching.

It's definitely a shot that a lot of people have tried. I'm constantly surprised at some of the neat ways people do these shots. But that brings me to the one draw back to macro it seems. There are only so many small objects in the world it seems. I end up using my macro lens to photograph everything else with though. Anyways, I'm done with rambling. Nice shot!

It's beautiful. No it's not; it's breathtaking ! Maybe not, if I think twice, it's astonishing ! Even if it's just an experiment, I still like it !!

You don't give yourself enough credit, Juls. You definitely don't need to explain yourself either. I love what you do and I'm learning along with you. Your work is gorgeous and whoever says otherwise needs their head examined lol. :P Seriously, though, I absolutely LOVE this one. :heart: :love:

I do the same with my macro lens. Everything from what Juls did here, to ladybugs and anything else I can pounce on that won't run from me rofl. :P

Interesting, how the little bits hold together! I thought it was a watercolour painting.
