In the studio we'vedone some photos of glass bottles. Glass is one material which can be very reflective, creating interesting effects or sometime unwelcome glare. I wanted to try something different with a reflective surface so I took a chrome kitchen trivet which spelt out the word ‘Hot’ and placed it on an electric hob to reflect the light so that it not only said hot but it looked hot as well.
To shoot this I waited until it was dark and used the light from the hob as the only light source. The exposure was for 20 seconds at f/4.0 and an ISO of 400. I then adjusted the red saturation and hue in Lightroom2 to achieve a molten effect and used the spot removal tool to tidy up some spots in the background.
