Pin Stripe

I continue to try this concept, i really enjoy how the refractions work in this. The problem with comercial marbles is they require a fair amount post processing work to eliminate significant imperfections in the glass. They look pretty clean here in a small web version after quite a bit of work, but at high resolution for print, 240dpi, the quality suffers. I need a source for more refined glass orbs.

Here is an earlier try:



Canon EOS 5D Mark II
1/10s f/11.0 at 100.0mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

I don't think you can get clear marbles, at least at that size. Bigger ones are more precious, and made with better care.
