Large Back Lit Sea Shell In The Light
I find sea shells to be beautiful art objects from nature, and this is one that is over 8 inches wide that I photographed this afternoon, indoors where it's easier to control the light.
Lighting stuff: The main light was a Yongnuo manual strobe in an 8.6 inch Lastolite soft box positioned at camera left and just out of the frame. Fill light came from a small hand mirror at camera right. For the back lighting, I had a bare flash behind the shell at camera left, and a second flash in a Rogue grid at camera right. All three strobes and my tripod mounted camera were triggered with a Yongnuo RF-603N.
Other plants, flowers, fruit or thingys that I've photographed using strobes can be seen in my Strobe Lit Plant set. For each image in the set, and there are over 1800 of them, I describe how I set up the lighting for that particular shot. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157628079460544/
Other shells that I've photographed and posted on Flickr can be seen in my Shells album. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/albums/72157626043932290
