I used a green backdrop and a cup wrapped in green paper to elevate the speaker in the shot. I had two softboxes on either side and an on-camera speed light filling in highlights. The final is a bracketed shot and merged in Lightroom. I felt it was laking in some dynamic movement, so I added the water splashing. (just more compositing and color correction). Was It too much or needed something else?
1/100sec , f/16, ISO 100
Sony a6400 w/ Sigma 50mm f1.4
Nice image! But I think the water does more harm than good. I think the simple image without the splash is solid.
