Portrait 304
Day 304 of 365
"Portrait 304"
Today's image is brought to you by my niece. Yet another tooth has fallen out! Can you guess how? I'll give you a hint.....Halloween. This is the actual piece of candy which extracted her molar, and I kept it in place for posterity. At her mother's suggestion, we kept it in a dish until I was ready to photograph the specimen. I used two lights to display the little fella. There is a beauty dish at camera-right, with a "sock" on it. A sock is simply an elastic piece of diffusion which goes in front of the beauty dish, providing a slightly softer light. It is moved in very close, delivering the subtle shadow on the camera-left side of the taffy and tooth. Lastly, there is a snooted speedlight in the background, with a purple filter on it. Purple is the complementary color to the yellow taffy, and I thought it would make the whole image a little more.....appetizing? Thanks for sticking around!!!
