I'm So Dizzy
(12.07.04)

(Day 62) It was a dark cloudy day yesterday, so it's back to playing with glass in my secret workshop. This could probably use a few more tries, but I ran out of time. I had thought of using the radial blurr in PS but it brought the image a bit over the top, so I'll just give it to you straight as it came out of the camera. Yes, I had the stupid 'I'm so Dizzy' song going through my head all day. :)

P.S. For those wondering, you're looking at two mirrors, one glass ball and a handfull of corks.

Nikon Coolpix 5700
1/30s f/4.5 at 8.9mm iso100 full exif

What an unusual and very compelling shot. I love the composition. This should be hanging in an art gallery.

This is fantastic. I love it. I like it better than that candle photo you linked to.

"Dizzy, my head is spinning. Like a whirlpool, it never stops. And it's you, girl, making it spin." Now see what you've done ;-) Nice work.

It's excellent, A famous photograph Alain Fleischer uses mirrors in his work, i think you would enjoy what he does;

Very interesting. It's funny, because the first thing that popped into my head (before I saw the title) was "Now I'm Dizzy!" So I'd say you pulled off your intent pretty well! I'll keep that in mind about tilting an image; it's funny how little things make the difference. Cool shot.
Guest 07-Dec-2004 20:07
Awesome this is really good
Saskia 07-Dec-2004 19:33
Wow, fantastic idea! I was trying to figure it out before I read your caption, but then I got dizzy ;)
Gary Winters07-Dec-2004 19:32
Now this rocks. And, I learned something. And, I'm going to try it sometime myself. Thanks!

Quite artistic and inventive LC. This composition required a fair amount of preparation but was no doubt a lot of fun! We'll look forward to more of the same.

Jeff Horner07-Dec-2004 17:18

Must be hard work to collect that many corks. Nice idea.
Gayle P. Clement07-Dec-2004 16:05
