    Reflections in a chipped marble ( NOT the dark side)

    We were walking Choco When we saw the marble embedded in what was left of the road after the rains.

    ISO 100 ~ F/16 ~ 0.5s ~ Natural Light

    Nice exercise in lighting but subject is a bit too pristine for my liking; perhaps a sprinkling of dirt would add to the composition.

    It's always fun to shoot globes, be they marbles, balls or whatever. Billiard balls on a green felt table are always a good subject as are marbles in the way you shot this. Playing with the light or lights and backgrounds can do marvelous things to the subject...

    I spent way too much of my allowance during marble season on marbles which I quickly lost to better players to take it up again
