Apple Reflection Effect

[.blank cd]

Just trying this out, mimicking what you see in cover flow on your apple products (ipods, phones, AppleTV, iTunes) Also picked up the font they use for the ipod user interface. I think I messed it up a little bit tho. See if you can spot it...

C&C welcome

Grr at first I thought it was the letter A reflected it looks strange lol. Dunno...too tough to spot.

Awesome shot though, I like the DOF with the f1.8 or was it f2.0 :goodjob: ;)

Yay I win! :cheers:

i dont get it..

You're very close. To get that final "mac" feel, you should have done a gradient that darkens as it rises, which gives the illusion that the reflection is on a flat surface... see?

^^^both pictures are exactly the same, i dont know what the hell the OP is talking about but the top picture is the same as the bottom.

Both pics are identical, however when I was angling them, I only angled the top of the pic and not both. Phantom, at firstbo didn't know what you were talkig about. But your saying to put a gradient on the background. I didn't think to, I was going by what the cover flow looked like on my iPhone.

^yeah I noticed the angle of the image wasn't the same at the top as it was at the bottom. Have you checked out lynda.com?
