Weekly Assignment #59: Inside Out

[Nikolai]

Sorry for a delay, RL got incredibly busy...

This new week assignment is called Inside Out. It means you need to reverse your usual point of view when you're observing something and try to take a picture from that subject point of view towards you, or, better yet, from inside of it. Extreme ways would be "looking" from the inside of the stuffed turkey, boiling kettle, from the inside of the carton/bottle pouring juice/wine, etc.

Each entry should consist of two frames: one of the regular view showing your primary subject and the second one is the picture from the point of view of (the insides of ) this subject.

Pictures must be fresh, moderate post-processing OK.

Let's take it inside out!

Here's a fairly simple one to start off - a view from my 17" flatscreen...

Matthew,
thank you, nice entry, :thumb
However I assume it's an almost complete PS :wink, while the idea was to actually *capture* the "from-inside" view:-) :deal

[mwalters]

Ooops. Time to get out the toolkit :)

Welcome to Dgrin and to the Class! :clap
Thank you for the entry! :thumb

The only thing I wish is a wider angle (maybe fish-eye) for the "from the cage" shot...

Thank you for the comment, Nikolai. This is already the widest I have. Adding a fish-eye to my shopping list. :barb

oh oops, my dad is signed in but this is Cassis.. ^.^

thanks, it took a few trys to get my camera to focus right... but after a few setting changes later this one was a the best..... I used my wide angle lense... is there anything I could have done different (other than different food :D)

Try to use full manual to avoid foxusing/exposure problems.
Also think of using off-camera flash for more natural look.

Yay! Thank you! :thumb

I tried this a few times with water, but the liquid just didn't show up. In the end I added a drop of a popular brown fizzy drink.

Camera was on a tripod, bottle in hand. I also left the bottle cap on and pierced it - the water flowed out too quickly without the cap. Exposure about 1.5 seconds to get a bit of movement.

It's curious that this morning, after shooting the food in the oven, I have been looking/watching a large bottle (5 liters) to make something similar to Mattews.
:D
I gave up then, but I may give a try tomorrow.:dunno

Hi Antonio. You just need to drink the water that is behind your left shoulder, on top of the kitchen cabinet :D

I've been traveling a lot lately on business, with no time to take photo's. :cry

Here's a shot from the pool. I used two cameras for the shoot. My Fuji P&S with water case and my D50.

I tried some other versions; P&S in the water, D50 on a chase lounge, but any shots taken at an angle created too much distortion. Not the most creative shot.

Dale, this is wicked! :clap Great entry, thanks! :thumb
When I first saw the hand going into what seems to be a wall of water I totally had a Matrix moment (I mean the original first, the good one:-) :rofl

[mwalters]

Great pair of images. Glad you put the correct hand in the water!

Matthew

[MooreDriven]

Thanks for the comments. I had a few other idea's, like taking a shot from behind my motorycle windshield, but the pool idea seemed to stick. In and of themselves, they are boring shots. But they fit the topic.

mwalters, I liked the shot from within the bottle. It has a kaleidoscope effect.

Now onto the next assignment.
