Flying forks

[blacknstormy]

mmm, playing with forks on mirrors give some 'interesting' effects .... a fork flying through the sky???

[Dug]

LOVE IT!!!!!

it looks like it is flying.

[blinkblink]

That's a forking good shot.

[Alpha_7]

Awesome Rel, it really looks like it flying at you, any more real and I'd have ducked

[Killakoala]

Sweet. You could put an eye out with that one.

[Oneputt]

Very creative Rel Move over Wendell

[blacknstormy]

 LOL - thanks guys - kind of reminds me of Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy (mainly 'cos it's just bloody stupid , but I loved the books - So long and thanks for the fish)

Glad you liked it

Rel

Rel where are you going to find a Bowl of Petunia's and a Sperm whale ?

I love the books too Do you keep a towel with you when you travel ?

[Zeeke]

Rel, find a gecko and do that!!

Top shot, it does look like its flying.. very clever

[thaddeus]

You should frame these and sell them as gifts for those who don't give a flying fork

She certainly does - comes in handy for diffusing flash light when photographing the ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal..

[marcotrov]

Very interesting and creative Rel. What's its Latin name
cheers

Glad to see there are plenty of froody dudes who know where thier towels are.

[LostDingo]

That is creative! 10 Points!

Very dimensional image

Strange, I haven't seen her post a shot of the Bugblatter Beast of Traal.

Here is a little more of what the Guide has to say about towels specifically concerning the photography of the Bugblatter Beast.....
...or to avoid the gaze of the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal (a mindboggingly stupid animal, it assumes that if you can't see it, it can't see you - daft as a bush, but very ravenous)...

If it's on a mirror, where is its reflection? PP'ed out?

[Slider]

Very nice Rel . Creativity Plus..

[blacknstormy]

Hey, I'm from a different planet. It's true - want to see my spaceship????

Thanks everyone - and yep, there was a reflection that was pp'd out - gotta love the clone

[blacknstormy]

And yes, I always have a towel..... it has great practical value, but more importantly, immense psychological value Clearly, anyone that can hitch the length and breadth of the galaxy, rough it, slum it, struggle against terrible odds, win through and still knows where his towel is , is clearly a man (woman) to be reckoned with -

Boy, do I need a pan galactic gargle blaster badly !!!!!

[kipper]

Wouldn't it be easier to use fishing line and hang the forks so that you can take a shot with a desirable backdrop. Then clone that out the visible wire, it'd be less obtrusive than a reflection. Making it easier for you to clone out.

That's just being way too clever and sensible Kipper

Great shot Rel

[blacknstormy]

Kipper - tried that, but the bloody clouds that I tied the fishing wire to kept on moving, and I couldn't keep up with the damn fork. And then the fishing line broke, and well, I've got a hell of a tine mark in my forehead

Thanks Geoff

I'll shout you one and your patience hubby of yours, if I ever get to meet you Then you can take me for a spin in that spaceship

[blacknstormy]

Alpha, you're on - and I even have the recipe

Juice from 1 bottle of the Ol' Janx spirit
Combine with one measure of water from teh seas of santraginus
3 cubes of arcturan mega-gin melted into mixture (it must be properly iced, or the benzine is lost)
4 litres of fallian marsh gas

use the back of a silver spoon to float a measure of qualactin hypermint extract

drop in a tooth from an algolian suntiger and watch it dissolve

sprinkle with zamphuor

add an olive

drink.... but very carefully

play the drinking game, is kind of fun

[Dug]

Pan galactic gargle blasters!!!!!

like having your brain smashed with a gold brick wrapped in a lemon slice.

[Willigan]

Top shot Rel - very creative. The fork is hanging above the Earth exactly the same way a brick doesn't

[BT*ist]

Very clever shot indeed.

[dooda]

Another way to do this would be to get a stock photo and composite the fork onto the sky with the cloudy background. A little cloning and you're there. Sort of like the George Lucas way of doing things.

[CraigVTR]

No matter how you do the shot, just remember to get clearance from air traffic control first.

Great shot
