Theme Week - Your Personal Favorite Photo |

Description: "Demon of the Deep"
It was a challenge to only pick one image as my favorite photo. Looking back through my old shots, this one from 2012 stood out to me. I'm still amazed that I was able to convincingly simulate an underwater shot without any photoshopping. The secret was a small piece of green cling wrap placed between the camera and the figure. A strategically placed desk lamp provided the lighting. I've tried to repeat this process but have not always had success since then. It is very fiddly.
I may have to post a few runner up shots, it was so hard to choose just one.

It's fun looking through the archives, I want to see your runners up, I have a few myself. |
