Well...this ws my first attempt to photograph bubble bath (and kitchen hand soap!). It wasn't exactly the way I wanted it to turn out, but I thought it was still "Post" worthy!

It was really difficult get the camera to focus on the pouring soap, and moving the lighting around to get the right effect. Here is what I came up with, until I attempt this messy photo again!

**Post Pro - cropped, desaturated everything except the soap on the left. I also used a green bubble bath that looked clear in the photos, so I desaturated that too. Increased contrast, and sharpened.

Very cool, indeed a dificult capture.. I know how E5700 works in these situations.
Very well done post-process, thank you for sharing it.
Carmem

very interesting shot. from the thumbnail i wasn´t sure what i was looking at and even on the full size picture, it´s not 100% clear to me. it looks like some kind of architectural artwork. in that sense, the note helped a lot :-)

And what I like, is the way, you've put everything in the left....
Funny and slippery shot in two colours, nice work, Pamela !

Good shot, I like how you desaturated everything but the soap it really helps it stand out. If your camera has manual focus it might be usefull in shots like this one.

J'ADORE !!!!! on peut laisser libre cours a notre imagination !

ca me gêne que ces deux "tuyaux" ne soient pas verticales...

Hi pamela, i first thought it was plastique or something, so good shot of the soap :o)
it sure is post worthy lol..

Very interesting, very clear shot. What did you use for background? Black Card Box?

Very interesting experience, you should check out what I did with Jell-o.

thanks for sharing
