Old Weathered Seashell In The Light
I was looking for a subject when I came across this old shell that's been laying out in the garden for years. It's one of the hundreds that we brought back from Baja California, Mexico.
Lighting: I first placed the shell on a mirror because I like the added dimensions that are added to the picture by the reflection. Light is from a Yongnuo flash in a 24 inch soft box at camera left, and just out of the frame. Fill light is from a hand mirror at camera right. The flash, and my tripod mounted camera, were triggered with a Yongnuo RF-603N.
Other shells that I have photographed over the years are in my creatively titled Shells album. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157626043932290
