Marbles

Spent much too long playing with the marbles tonight. Think I must have lost mine :) My poor husband was holding up posterboards, sheets, lights, etc. Never could get a good shot of the glass with the marbles, kept ending up with my reflection. I finally ended up with this setup.
Don't laugh too hard




Here are two of my best tries




Canon PowerShot A95
1/13s f/2.8 at 7.8mm full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

I think this looks like a lot of fun. Maybe I'll dig up some marbles too and try it out!

Came out quite nicely.

Was worth the effort, this came out great, and how nice that your hubby gets involved to, he probably figures, if you can't beat them, join them, LOL.

Got a chuckle out of your commentary :) It's amazing what we'll try for PAD. It helps to have an understanding husband!!! Great job with the lighting though. I've been experimenting with lighting all week myself.
