Jewelry Test - 8
Lighting Details: 540EZ with snoot+tiny add on snoot on camera right and very low to highlight the jewelry and show some texture on the slate. nikon sb-25 bounced up against a 18x36 white foam core board held above the set by the photographer. Wasn't getting enough control from the snoot at this scale, so I added some "barn doors" out of a cardboard box to the end of the 12" snoot so that there was just a little slit doing the highlighting.
Composition is a little static, but turning the necklace just about any other way really caught the light.
Rocks are from "Mexican Beach Stones" from Home Depot, and everything is sitting on a single slate tile (also from Home Depot) on my kitchen island.
