Peas & Carrots

Description


Staff Favorite - Details & Macro - July 2013

This is actually a photo of my frozen dinner, containing, among other things, rice, peas, and carrots.
I took it out of the microwave and was about to peel off the plastic when I noticed the beads of
condensation on the underside of the plastic and the delightful way they refracted my dinner!
In the photo, it looks like the beads are raised, but they are actually hanging on the underside of the plastic.
Minor adjustments in CS5.

Exif: F Number: 7.1, Exposure Bias Value: 0.67, ExposureTime: 13/10 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 100, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 100.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS REBEL T2i

Applause, applause, Peggy, for seeing the beauty in what we'd generally think of as ordinary and actually grabbing your camera and taking advantage of it. Wonderful graphic image you saw and captured. #10803061

Peggy, I love this! Isn't it funny how photographers "see" their next photo in the most everyday things that most folks totally miss ?Glad you took the time to see it and capture it so perfectly! #10803097
