Eye Was Assalted
Fun with Visual Puns
Did a shoot with a salt shaker almost two months ago and had this swimming around in my head ever since.
Salt shaker and toy eyeball on top of a piece of blue foam core. Heavy kosher salt used to provide more texture.
Almost bare monolight with a small reflector to camera right. This seemed to be the key to the composition. Too little or to much shadow, to long or two short. I had been shooting most of the shots from higher above. Moving down solved a lot of issues and gave a more interesting shot.
2' x 4' softbox about 4 feet above the table and to the left (but almost over head) to provide a little bit of fill and to bounce the color up into the shadows. Small foam core reflector lust to camera left to fill in the eyeball and a large piece of foam core nestled directly below the lens.
