    Does your wife know you’re throwing her jewellery around???!!!! LOL!!!!
    VERY cool shot!!

  • Vikram Franklin replied

    LOL! Thanks Wendi.
    She most definitely knew – she gave me the pendant as she felt gold would show better than silver/steel.

  • Wendi Donaldson

    It’s a stunning pendant….hope YOU bought it for her!! She’s a good sport too.

  • Vikram Franklin replied

    :-( – I think this was one she bought herself.
    But she most definitely is a good sport and a great support for me.

    Wow, now that’s creative thinking! Very cool shot!

  • Vikram Franklin replied

    Thanks Ann – had thought of this as a jewllery ad – though not sure it says much about intrinsic qualities of jewellery. I took a few with a watch thrown into the water – those would make good ads.

    Great shot! Love how you can see the pendant ‘broke’ the water surface.

  • Vikram Franklin replied

    Thanks Peter – what was great was seeing the different ways in which the water broke with different objects – different with each object.

    Used this shoot to get myself to shoot new stuff – hadn’t shot anything new for a bit then the rain came and forced me into doing this.

    this is awesome – i work in a jewellers – i just wish i’d seen it in time for my may emerald birthstone display…. tell us your secret – how did you do this and get the shot so crisp???

  • Vikram Franklin replied

    :-) – thanks for that most awesome comment!!
    Not too much of a secret – it’s essentially the set-up that allows for the shot. The only post processing is a slight adjustment of curves. I described the set-up in a previous shot Splaaaasshhh

    I love these shots Vikram, such wonderous detail and colour. Is it ok to ask the gritty details of the shot lol?

    I love the bubbles realeased by the pendant, it almost seems to have torn the water. beautiful and inspiring work :)

  • Vikram Franklin replied

    Cheers Pete – sorry about not replying earlier – this one seems to have escaped me!
    Yes – it does look the water has been torn! The effect it much more pronounced in another in this series – Air Glass
