Dimpled Golf Ball

Snap 1



It is just a golf ball clicked under fluorescent light. But I decreased the aperture and changed the settings to make it look like it was clicked in a studio under a pin point source of light. The effect that I got was simply marvellous. It is what you see above.

Now, the whole golf ball. Except that I allowed more light to come. And you can see the entire periphery of the ball now. The dimples are more easily visible as compared to the first one. Looks like the moon in an eclipse. :-)

One sleepless night, I was up pondering over all the little things that usually escape our attention and my eyes fell on the night bulb. Something about the calm light that it cast around itself caught my attention. A soft light that gives us some assurance that it is not that dark and no monsters are going to come out of the closet. I just picked up my camera and shot this in the manual mode. Pretty pleased with the outcome, I slept a sound sleep! :-)
