For the Utata.org (Utata group on Flickr) Iron Photographer 29 challenge. Which had to include sunglasses or glasses, a bottle and film noise/grain. Mine is the bonus version because you get to see my messy house and my bad, bad dog (who is busy trying to ruin my glasses/bottle/grain shot as I was taking it.)
Here are the elements for the next Iron Photographer:
1 - eyeglasses / sunglasses
2 - a bottle
3 - noise / grain
The first element, eyeglasses or sunglasses is pretty self-explanatory. We're willing to stretch it to include things like welding goggles or a diving mask. Ain't nobody gonna say IP is finicky.
The second element is also pretty straightforwars. A bottle is a bottle, a container with a narrow neck designed to hold a liquid. We don't care if it's empty or full (or half-empty or half-full depending on your world view).
The final element is noise or film grain. The easiest way to achieve noise or grain is to crank the ISO up as far as it'll go. You can, of course, add noise in post processing.
