Glowing Pink Shell

My wife and I like sea shells, and have accumulated quite a few of them over the years. I find shells to be excellent photo subjects because of the interesting shapes and color. This is one I grabbed this morning to exploit.

 

To show the shapes and textures, I side lit the shell with a Yongnuo flash in a 24 inch soft box at camera right. To make it glow, and show the translucent qualities, I back lit it with another Yongnuo flash in a Rogue grid, hand held behind the shell.

 

I have quite a few sea shell pictures, and if you enjoy that sort of thing, they're in my Shells album.
