I thought I'd take my flower portraits to the next level by submerging them in water and adding milk and food colorants to create an ethereal result. I used a fish tank (another suitable container for water will do) as it’s best to have a flat glass surface, as a curved one will create distortion and possibly bring in unwanted reflections. You can get a 25L children’s fish tank for around $30 / £25 / AU$45 if you shop around.

I used a variety of props including an ornamental flintlock pistol, an old map, and a few pieces of eight to set the sceneAh, Easter – a bacchanalian orgy of chocolate egg consumption and, of course, whatever pirate-themed film is showing on the TV / streaming services. Well, that’s in my household anyway. But if thoughts of golden treasure and peak Johnny Depp are distracting you from indulging in your favorite hobby (no, not eating, it’s photography, remember!) why not have a go at this project?
