This is inspired by one of my good Flickr friends, Kristen W., who has recently added some water drop photos of her own. I'm taking a queue from her and going with a little bit simpler shot for today. In trying to get different splashes and collisions, it's easy I think to lose sight of just how beautiful this stuff is. Please let me know what you all think as any suggestions are welcomed and appreciated. Enjoy!

Persian Glass on Glass
Some more fun from the Cheekwood Botanic Garden Chihuly exhibit. These pieces are called persians and they were set up in these atrium windows, so I got some beautiful color coming through the window. Please let me know what you all think as any suggestions are welcomed and appreciated. Enjoy!

Blue Reeds On The Hillside
Another shot from the Cheekwood Botanic Garden Chihuly exhibit in Nashville Tennessee. One thing I've always liked about these garden shows is that even though these installations jump out at you when you first see them, they are relatively unassuming. They don't really seem too out of place, which goes to show to intense detail and thought that is put into these installations. Please let me know what you all think as any suggestions are welcomed and appreciated. Enjoy!

Overflowing
To continue my Chihuly preparations, I have another perspective of the boat installation at the Cheekwood Botanic Garden in Nashville Tennessee. I really loved that all these warm colors were inside of the turquoise colored boat. Please let me know what you all think as any suggestions are welcomed and appreciated. Enjoy!

Glass Roots
I wanted to get back to posting some Chihuly shots because out a week and a half, I get to shoot another Chihuly exhibit. I'm so excited to just be getting away for the weekend, but having the opportunity to see another Chihuly exhibit and shoot it is a plus. Jenea and I will be heading to Indianapolis, IN for the 14 and 15 to visit their Children's Museum to see the Fireworks in Glass exhibit. A nice big tower and glass ceiling to see and shoot. I can't wait to get back to my "glass roots" since it was Chihuly exhibits as well as Disney that got me into photography in the first place.
This particular shot is from the Missouri Botanical Garden in the main atrium. I love shooting this chandelier, as I'm sure you've all noticed. Please let me know what you all think as any suggestions are welcomed and appreciated. Enjoy!
P.S. - If anyone lives in the area and can offer any suggestions of things to do or shoot in the Indianapolis area, please let me know. We need something to do on Saturday evening I believe. :)

New Color
Hey everyone! Happy New Year to al, glad to be back with another photo! For Christmas, I got some flash gels from Jenea that I've been having some fun experimenting with. It really makes me want another flash for this water drop stuff, but that I'll have to wait a bit for. This particular shot is pretty simple, yellow drop and base water, a white background behind the drop tray, and a true blue flash gel on my SB-700. Having to flashes with different colors on them would really have some epic results, so I can't wait for that. Please let me know what you think as any suggestions are welcomed and appreciated. Enjoy!
