WATCH

I put water in a bowl and dropped a watch into it. I captured the bubbles that were created using a small aperture. I used one light source on the right side of the bowl. I wanted reflections, so I chose a metal bowl and metal watch.

LIGHTBULB

I used two lights on the left and right sides of a lightbulb mounted on cardboard. A black piece of cardboard was the background. An assistant smashed another lightbulb into the mounted lightbulb, breaking it. I captured the moment when the lightbulb shattered.
