Both water and glass will produce direct reflections. Fortunately they are transparent. To avoid direct reflection, a diffused light source is placed behind the transparent material.

Working in groups with the strobe light from behind:

• one student pours water, one student photographs and if you choose one student holds glass and one student can add a color gel to the light
• Pay attention to framing and composition
• Generally vertical framing works best for this subject but horizontal can work if you pay attention to composition and eliminate distracting details
• When shooting, camera needs to focus for each shot. As the water is being poured you will be tempted to shoot continually but the camera needs to focus for each shot
• Experiment with arrangements, compositions, color

Each student should have 20 photos not 20 per group
