This picture opportunity presented itself as I was cleaning up from the photos I had been taking earlier in the evening. Sometimes it’s really hard to put the camera away!
I have learned something very important over the past few months of shooting pictures; step back and open your eyes and look around. [even the one that is all squinty from being stuck to the viewfinder] Sometimes it’s easy to be so completely focused on what is right in front of you that you miss out on a great shot. I’m not saying that you should be willing to compromise your photographic vision but you should be willing to add to it.
In case you were wondering…Here are a few of the shots from earlier in the evening. I decided that I want to make the glycerin/food coloring drops into a series so I was expanding my vision and using green this time.

The glycerin series is turning out great. Really cool shapes and patterns you’re getting. I really like the B&W one. Looks like they’re on hair and getting an amazing 3D effect.
