    Look at this tutorial http://www.xaraxone.com/tutorials/jun01/index.htm It is very old but Xara has not changed too much from the time it was made.

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.

    i like the burner effect one even if it defies the laws of physics as the oxygen would get used up instantly inside a bulb. it's an interesting juxtaposition though.

    Igor, your imagination is wonderfully spent on the variations you've made from an incandescent light bulb.

    If I may, without sounding negative, you'd get a more metallic look on the threads of the bulbs if you added some contrast, like this:

    Use m ore pure black and white and a little less grey.

    Metal reflects its environment, and photographers often hang white and black strips of paper in studio just off-camera to "paint" some detail onto an otherwise visually vacant type of material.

    Keep up the good work and I'm sorry I saw this thread so late!

    My Best,

    Gary

    Gary,


    Thank you for your interest in my crazy pictures even comment.


    Your concerns with metal threads are absolutely correct.
    I do not impose a complete objective view of reality - just a hint of recognition.
    But perhaps it came time to work on it


    The following bulb may be closer to reality


    Igor
