Nice try. May I suggest you play with the lighting and composition a bit. The pics appeared pretty dull.

may i ask how to do it? do u need any special equipment?

[Will03]

hi all.. thanks for your comments... ya... i think it looks rather dull as well... will try to play somehting with the light and composition....
any suggestions ? like how I should do the setup ?

hi bsplenden

I did not use any special equipment, was using my 300D with kit lens to do the shots. It was done at my kitchen sink... hee.... it could be better if u use manual focus...

use a macro zoom lens, try different shutter setting and most importantly, make use of light to create the effect and mood.
