Still Life with Plum, Wild Plum Sprig, and Assorted Fittings
I'm not thrilled with the result here, but I spent so much time on it I feel compelled to post it. Not to give an "excuse" but one reason I had problems here was that my studio (aka my living room) is too cramped. I've tentatively decided to remove all the furniture (other than studio-related) so I'll have a real studio, not half-studio half-living-room.
Strobist: DSLR300 speedlight front right and above through umbrella with flags to shield the background. DSLR300 back left facing away from subject and reflected off crumpled paper.
