The Blobs
Macro of my lava lamp.11 total reviews
Comment from Life is but a dream.
Hi there, I came to your portfolio because I was curious to see how you were coming along with micro photography. I have spent a few hours this morning in Google studying micro photography and how to do it....will look into getting more extensions once I get 'home' in June.
I like this otherworldly presentation and macro of your lava lamp. The patterns of bubbles both large and small delight.
The close crop makes me feel like I'm in an alien world....OR....this alien world is inside of me.
Happy shooting.

Awesome shot. It lets your imagination run wild. It looks like a living creature. The detail is amazing and just the right amount of depth of field. Great work manipulating the shadows and highlights, particularly bringing out the "veins" of the creature.

Introduction: First and foremost, my intention is never to cause offence when delivering a review to a FanArtReview Community Member.
As a backdrop to my review observations, I am happy to divulge that my interest in Photography mainly focuses on the interplay of light on a subject or object and the surroundings encompassed within the four corners of a camera's viewfinder. Fuji Velvia Slide film and a Lightbox are still highly thought of, which probably explains why I am a follower of Photography by Michael Busselle, Joe Cornish, Lee Frost, Tom Mackie, David Noton, Charlie Waite and John Webster. My self-absorbed thinking is not always concerned with Landscape and Travel. Occasionally, I enjoy shooting the odd Still Life using soft diffused window light.
When it comes to Wildlife Photography, I am aware of the work of Andy Rouse and just how far he pushes the boat out with Lady Luck at his side.
Art is undoubtedly the cornerstone of all Photographic paths, tracing it's true roots back to cave drawings and etchings.
Digital Art has surely passed everyone's expectations, and has led me to occasionally explore the challenges and creativity offered by a Fuji Finepix S2800HD Digital Camera.
I do not hold a teaching qualification, but I am BTEC National Diploma accredited in Design and a NAWE Professional follower / member.
All Artists surely have a unique thought process interacting with their craft.
As reviewers, we have to accept that our observations cannot always hit bullseye from a recipient's viewpoint.
My aim is never to cause offence.
Observations: The Portrait Composition adds a really dynamic quality to your image.
Captioning is simple and has been well thought through.
Creativity of presentation: First Rate
Centre of Interest: Well seen
Technical Excellence: Respect
Technique: Imaginative
Story Telling Ability: Strong
Conclusion: A worthy addition to your Portfolio.
I am sure that William Henry Fox Talbot and Louis Jacques Mande Daguerre would approve of your artistic Skills !
Thank You for sharing your Artwork and enhancing my journey as an Art Reviewer.

That was a very interesting and creative review and comments itself! You flatter me with your vision and are hitting the nail on all accounts! Especially your reference to great photographers of our world. I take to heart your comments with respect and dignity. Thank you.
Comment from jaguarXFR
Well thought of looks like a load of planets with moons a bit to close but there you go. This very good with lovely shades of greens and hints of yellow. The close up shot is very effective in perfect focus looking through I assume a round glass as my lava lamp is.
Well done thank you for sharing

Thank you, your comments are cool, and yes it is very tight because my lava lamp, like yours is rounds, don't want any of those nasty unwanted reflections......do we! Thank you again!

Hey, Thanks Angel! I'm trying to get back into the groove, but still not out of the woods with my computer, I havent had a chance or too much time to do any reviews and take pictures, let alone learn my new camera! Thank you for always being there, I hope I can catch up soon, when my computer stops bugging me! Ha Ha! Get it?

Hi there,my friend,
You are very welcome and I look forward to seeing more of your work. :)
Comment from MKFlood
Oh I recognize the ole lava lamp right off the bat. Many decades ago stared at one of these. Wink.. Awesome approach to do a closeup capture to catch even the small lava. The capture of the light is excellent. The angle of the shot of the close up of the lava is artistic. The clarity is great. The image is balanced and eye appealing to viewer. Great eye and awesome work overall(clapping)

Bold color against a negative background provides a stunning initial impact. The focus is very good with strong detail throughout. Good play on shadow and light, nice texture as well. Thanks for sharing.

Comment from Dick Lee Shia
I don't have a full grasp of what you're describing as subject but still the same I find this aesthetically appealing.
Visually intriguing.
Semi abstraction.
Vibrant macro.
Neon glowing colors.
A great initial impact. Nice interesting subject. Excellent POV & DOF...
Harmonious colors. Impressive lighting, focusing & framing.
Thanks for sharing...
