Shades of Blue

Shades of Blue

Fun with glue sticks. I was looking for something to take a photo of for today, saw the glue sticks on my desk, and had the idea to shoot through them. Then I had the idea to spice up the light by bouncing it off a bit of colored cardboard I had laying around (packaging from something). Finally, I used some black foam and a black shirt to get the background to go black (with just a little bit of cleanup in post).

  1. When I realized that you were serious about this, and that these are actually glue sticks, it blew my mind. Great photo!

  2. Haha, thanks! I've actually been surprised at people's reactions to this one. I guess since I was there, setting up the glue sticks, it's hard for me to see it as anything but a bunch of glue sticks. :)
