Painted Stones
These stones were found on the top of a traprock/basalt cliff when I was out hiking last weekend. They really caught my eye, and liked the shapes and colors of the stones paired with each other. I have no clue what kind of minerals are in the rocks to make them turn these colors. All I do know is that they are beautiful colors! I felt that these shapes lended to a very minimalist photo, so I got out my white tagboard, and my home-made light box and set to work. After a lot (ton) of fiddling, I was able to get the stones to pose in a pleasing manner without falling over. I set the light directly overhead and slightly to the front of the rocks to get an even light, but with no harsh shadows on the front face. Overall, this worked a treat. I think this was 5 photos that were focus stacked, but it could have been 4 as well.
Overall, it was a fun little photo shoot. Let me know what you think! Enjoy :)
Apparently this was on Explore 3/3/16 #225 :)
