Cryptocurrency and Coffee - Free Stock Images

in Stock Images2 years ago (edited)

Inspired by the prolific author @cryptoandcoffee, I wanted to create a series of Creative Commons Images for those who appreciate two finer things: #Crypto and #Coffee. After raiding my cupboards for #coffeebeans, I decided that the roast needed to be darker; fortunately, there was a lot of cheap dark roast coffee around.

I had to research some more licencing as I got some more coins shipped to me, so for reference:

Finally, it was showtime, so I got my trusty Sony A6600 and a handful of photography light, mixed it all, and this is what we get!

With these two #Bitcoin photos, I wanted to capture a cinematic look with the blue and orange. And then try and highlight the golden tones with the green light.

The #ETH #coin I have is very reflective, so I used the overhead light to highlight it in red and contrast it with the photography. I like how the last two came out when I accidentally knocked the bowl and managed to reflect the light straight into the lens.

Ethereum in Coffee Bright-Red

Finally, with #Litecoin, I returned to the more cinematic #amber and #cyan to highlight the lines on the #LTC coin. The final photo was a happy accident as I knocked the light red, and it looked pretty lovely despite having a red overhead light on.

All of these photos are taken by me on my Sony A6600 using a Sigma 50mm f1.4 Lens.

I am licencing these under the CC-BY-SA 4.0 International; if you are inclined to thank me, add me as a beneficiary to your post when you use them, I would be hugely grateful.

If you have ideas for shots you want to use in your posts, ping me in the comments, and I will see what I can do!

@millycf1976,

You are most welcome!! When I think of coffee, I think of many things. One, of course, is our dear witness c0ff33a. Then of course... drinking some!! But you are also in that "thought cloud"... So I felt it would be awesome to give you a shout-out!!

I appreciate it very much @wesphilbin!
Whenever I think of anything "thoughtful" I always think of you too...

you are also in that "thought cloud"

I like that:)))

Thank you, and I hope that you are doing well healthwise and in general.

Have a lovely day!

Thank you for your attention and kind words :)

Nicely done Richard. I like the color effects to bring out the details. A great "blend" of photography, crypto and coffee - perhaps it's a Crypto Roast?

Nice camera, but I am curious about the light source specifics. Gelled flash mono heads?

Thanks for your comment, I use Small Rig LED panels, as they have a decent battery and you can control the colour modes between CCT White and RGB.

Some excellent images again, thank you.
