Trying something new...

[Jon690]

I don't normally go for experimental shots as I rather prefer pre-planned shots and outcomes.
I did this on the spur of the moment but overall, its come out quite good.
Comments always appreciated...

Anyone?

At the first impression it looked like chocolate because of the color. Then, later, after I recognized the shapes, it looked like iced cubes. I guess it is a slow motion picture.

Is it ice cubes? hard to tell exactly, I find the colour gives it a weird feeling, I think it'd look much better in B&W.

I think the shot has great composition. I like the clean area with the name in it too. I even like the off colorcast with prism refections, but... I think the shot or editing quality could be improved to really make it something special. It seems to be noisy, blurred, and you could have edited out some of the purple spots in the middle of the picture. Take it again, but use a tripod and a higher f-stop. Ice is something people like to see with extreme sharpness and clarity. At least the ice in the middle should be, its ok to have the blurring from DOF on the edges of the image.

Very ice! I like the light you've caught coming thru them.

Many thanks for your comments
I agree with that it could be improved by either b+w or spending more time on it.
They are actually plastic square's that actual look like ice cubes!

Will post another edited version later

I've been taken in! Fooled again.
