Fun experimenting

Had to find all of our lighting gear boxed up for the move from Alaska last year. This assignment: Top/bottom/right/left light at 90° angle to subject—a small perfume bottle. After many tries, I opted for top-down.

Strobe dialed down to 1/32 to eliminate hot spots

(If I could do it over again, sure would block out the window light reflecting a bit of the fields.)
