Bright Idea

[nikkie]

The initial idea was not mine how ever I just gave it my own twist.

First I got a light bulb frosted works best

Then I set up on the coffee table I used a couple of music tapes and a dinner place mat (one of those hard types) to give it some hight

I found a nice dark photo in a photography book I have

Put up a black background behind

got a small torch (flashlight)

got my light bulb and placed it on the page of the book got a torch behind the light bulb

set up my camera on tripod and settings

Made the room as dark as I could

turned on the torch and shot away

the only photo shop I used was to remove some dots from the photo of the city in the book and to remove the reflection from the light bulb on book


Good fun
