038-365v4 – Rubik’s Cube

Mark Seton LRPS CPAGB · 7 February 2021

How to make a photograph of a rubik’s cube interesting? Not sure if I’ve succeeded, but using black and white paper as a background always helps. I tried with a few different colours of paper and showing different coloured sides of the cube. I think this yellow version of the shot is my favourite. What do you think?

I remember when these first came out and how in demand they were on the school playground. At the time I was pretty good at solving them, I don’t think I’d be able to do it now and I really don’t have the patience to try and solve it again ;-). Mind you, they seem to be made a bit better now than I remember, although I didn’t have a genuine one, rather a knock off cheap version…so that could have something to do with it.

If I have piqued your interest and you want to re-live your childhood and give it another go, you can pick up a new Rubik’s cube (aka puzzle cube) by clicking here.
