I was playing around with my light bed and took a picture of my flash on it's forward face, flipped it upside down, removed the white color from the backdrop, turned it black and added a few fake stars!

I kind of liked the lighting effect of the bed as it reminded me of how a lot of science fiction space ships seemed to be lit in TV shows and films...or sort of anyway! ;)

C&C appreciated.

Cheers! :)

Cool shot! It reminds me SO MUCH of my 430 a few weeks ago as it dropped toward the concrete floor in slow motion. The force was with me, though, because it somehow landed on top of my shoe enabling me to catch it before it hit the ground. No damage!

I think that looks more believable than those space ships in the movies in the 50's. :)

Thanks folks for the kind words! ;)

Your positive feedback has inspired me to perhaps do some additional similar themed shots that I'll post in the near future!

Cheers! :)
