Reflecting On A Spiralling Shell

Another sea shell that we picked up in Baja years ago. I find sea shells to be beautiful works of nature, and enjoy photographing them.

 

Lighting: I first placed the shell on a mirror. The main light was a Yongnuo flash in a 24 inch gridded soft box at camera left. Fill light was from a hand mirror at camera right. I back lit it with a second Yongnuo flash in a Rogue grid, hand held behind the shell at camera right. The strobes and my tripod mounted camera were triggered by a Yongnuo RF-603N.

 

Other shells that I have photographed over the years are in my creatively named Shells album. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157626043932290
