Här kommer mitt bidrag för fotosöndags veckotema - grönt

Jag skulle verkligen ha gillat och hoppat på första flyg till regnskogen i Amazon men banken sa nej. Så jag fick klara mig själv genom att ta in "regnskogen". Jag tog ett löv från trädgården och en leksaks groda och la det på en glasskiva och jag använde en blixt som backgrundsbelysning för att få siluetten.

Here comes my contribution to fotosöndag's weekly challenge - green.

I would have liked to hop on the first plane available and fly to the Amazon rain forest to get this shot but alas my bank manager said no. So had to make do with taking the "rain forest" indoors. Took a leaf from the garden and a plastic frog, and placed them a pane of glass and used one flash to back light them, as seen here (Union Jack pillow in photo was not because I was feeling patriotic but to lay on lol).

Strobist info: One Godox AD200 was placed in a small gridded reflector (with green gel added), the flash was then positioned behind the subjects so as to back-light them giving the silhouette. Triggered by wireless remote.

Stepwells in Rajasthan, India, boast a rich history dating back over a thousand years. Initially built to harvest rainwater and provide access to groundwater, they evolved into architectural marvels and communal spaces. Constructed by digging into the earth, these structures were adorned with intricate carvings, serving as both utilitarian and aesthetic symbols. Stepwells facilitated water storage in arid regions, crucial for agriculture, drinking, and rituals. They also served as meeting points, offering respite from the scorching desert heat. Over time, stepwells declined with modernization, but their cultural significance endures, inspiring art, literature, and conservation efforts. Today, they stand as poignant reminders of India's ingenuity in water management and architectural prowess.
