I love both of these, the first makes it look like the drops are floating, the second is just great, the colours and depth is brilliant

Number two wins it, but only just.

 

[AshMashMash]

Awesome sauce Love that second picture!

super work

 

[willbaroo]

Amazing, have you thought about poloshing the CD?? Even using some wax?

 

[skipper]

excellent love the first one.

No1 is very nice, looks like a ufo invasion

Hmmm now there's an idea as they'll sit on the surface a bit better... Looks like I'm off to Halfords tonight

[AndySwinden]

Cheers for the feedback guys, one tip I have is use fresh fizzy water and get everything setup / positoned / focused prior to shooting. As soon as you're ready just use a finger tip to drop the water on your CD / DVD etc and start shooting as the bubbles grow pretty quickly. The fresher the fizz the bigger the bubbles and the weirder these look! I always use Tesco own brand fizz, the cheapest one they do (I think it's called Ashbeck spring or Peckham spring as my missus like to call it!)

I like both, but prefer the second one. Nice work.

 

[Daysleeper40]

I really like both of these - the colours are great and I like the fizzy water effect

Inspired by Carl i thought i'd have a go too.... first macro stuff I've done really, took delivery of my 100mm macro bought from the forums here so thought I should post something taken with it! C&C always appreciated.

Thanks for the inspiration Carl!!

Jeremy.

 

[CReid]

Brilliant!!! I won't ask how many shots it took to get a "keeper", it's a real bugger getting the focus just right on these shot.

[Jchaplin]

Thanks Carl, much appreciated. I'd heard the DOF was narrow when doing macro but I didn't really appreciate HOW narrow it would be! Good fun!

Cheers again for the inspiration.

Jeremy.

#2 for me
colours are fantastic

 

[bsmotorsport]

whoah, thats this weekends project sorted out, colours are amazing, excellent stuff and such a simple idea. Ive got a few hundred quids worth of car wax sat in the garage doing nothing so reckon that may come into the equation too. That 2nd one is first class
