- Glass sheet (sat on black paper).
- Large black sheet of paper as a backdrop
- Shell positioned 18" to 2' away from backdrop (to avoid illuminating the black paper)
- Camera mounted on tripod on an angle
- Flash positioned to the left of camera and level with the shell. At an angle to create desired shadows to emphasise it's texture.
- Camera in manual mode
- Exposure taken of backdrop and exposure compensation applied to ensure the background (in other words everything but the shell) is under exposed to black.
- Flash exposure reading taken from brightest area of shell (to minimise burn out in final image)
- Shots taken and fine tuning of settings until desired exposure is achieved
This approach was taken since there was limited natural daylight available at the time - but it WAS light.
The conversion to black and white and final editing decisions to achieve the final image cannot be covered here...

As you notice, I had a helper!! LOL
Active Assignment Weekly 2/6: Water
WIT: 2 soda bottles. One filled with water and glitter and connected to the other with a plastic coupler and washer. 2 off camera flashes on snoots with camera below. Black backdrop. Some PP contrast and highlight adjustments. Lots of swirls and random testing of camera settings and flash position in order to minimize reflections and expose the tornado.
This weekās assignment is to find a quiet place
Donāt ā none, just take a break from your busy days and go shooting!
Dare ā add people (same as last week, sorry I just love pictures of people)
My husband and I went to Colonial Williamsburg yesterday just to stroll around. It's about 1 1/2 hours from our house. On the way home we stopped at this wonderfully quiet place on a river bank. My husband is off in the distance and I'm in the corner (shadow).
WIT - Adjustments in LR basic panel
University Assignment Season! Hogging Power Points and Bashing up the Keyboard on both my Mac and iPhone!
this is my submission for the second assignment for Strobist Bootcamp II. I'm a bit disapointed because i cannot seem to get the colors to come out right on the web.
I'm a complete novice at studio work and this was a major learning experience for me. It turned out to be much much more challenging than i had thought.
Strobist: 580EX II 1/2 camera left and behind, 430EX 1/16 camera right about level with the subject, gold reflector camera left, held by a voice activated stand (my son). Canon 30D with 17-85 lens 1/60 sec, F/16 (set up in my stream)

Nom nom nom? Anyways. I've always enjoyed grossing people out by obnoxiously eating with my mouth wide open. In my mouth are chocolate, crackers, frosted Mini-wheats, and Cheerios. Why not macro this and see the details of the chewed up food mixed with the saliva?

Shooting for a purpose
Jan 5th 2014
I must admit I thought the assignment wanted just the image (with no text) but I note all the others so far have text added - so I did!
The meaning is obvious, I hope. An Agency specialising in counselling services for those experiencing marriage or relationship problems.
On reflection I wish the crack was a bit narrower, but I hope the meaning is clear. :)
Two images. The bells and the cracked earth background showing through. Blended in PSE5 and text added there too.

Active Assignment Weekly: Jan 18-25 "Details"
Rumpleteazer is one of the most beautiful cats I have ever seen. He has just as much spunk as when my mom saved him from the side of the road many years ago.
There is a color version of this in my photostream as well, but I thought the b&w highlighted the details a little more effectively for the AAW.
"And when you heard a dining room smash
Or up from the pantry there came a loud crash
Or down from the library came a loud ping
From a vase which was commonly said to be Ming
Then the family would say: "Now which was which cat?
It was Mungojerrie! And Rumpleteazer!"
And there's nothing at all to be done about that!ā
