Shot pouring bubble bath into my husband Tim's hand while I had him perched in the bath. I used a white board bg and the white bath acted as a natural reflector. Also used the tungten light and window light.

Must have looked so strange to other shoppers scouring the supermarket for bubble bath of the right colour, consistency, opacity and volume and then buying one of each colour!!

Had much fun with this one, taking the shot and in PhotoShop. I rotated the image, converted the hand to B&W and then changed the colours in the bubble bath.

Please take a look at the larger version if you have the time, thanks.

hmmm, not sure here Lynsey;

that is, wether this should this be POTW or "merely" an EC.

Superb image; fantastic concept, well executed.

Looks like you've melted down a stick of Blackpool rock. Very eyecatching.

A fabulous image. Very imaginative.
All your hard work paid off a treat.

Simon

Very playful image. It's good fun just working out what and how you arrived at the final version. Lovely imagination and well crafted.

Great image, love the use of colour over the simple mono hand and background. Exposure looks pretty much spot on to really make the colours leap off the image.

Think this would work just as well the 'right way round'.
