This is a basic, but effective setup that I use for a lot of my photos taken with a strobe/natural light combination. I set my strobe behind my subject to give a good rim and hair light :).

I like sharp objects. :)

St Anne's Roman Catholic church, in the Chapel End / Camp Hill area of Nuneaton, was built in 1999-2000 to replace the original basic dual-purpose church/school built in the 1940s with a limited budget and lifespan. The new church was opened in March 2000, and dedicated later that year by Archbishop Vincent Nicholls.

 

The church is square in plan with the corners angled (forming an uneven octagon) with the orientation on the diagonal axis facing south east. There is an unfortunate inbalance in the glazing within, which is concentrated on the north and east walls, the remaining walls having the parish rooms attached. The original design included a central lantern over the nave, but this was sadly abandoned during construction owing to rising costs (this would have given the building a more 'church-like' profile outside and greater light within).

 

Following my work at Sacred Heart, Bilton I was invited to prepare designs for several of the church's windows prior to construction, and thus had the sanctuary oculus with the dove of the Holy Spirit installed for the first mass in the church in March 2000. In the following years the project continued for the adjoining five windows including a central image of the church's patron St Anne with her daughter Mary.

 

The remaining windows were filled a few years later with a Crucifixion group and a more abstract Sacrament-themed composition (in lighter colours as continuing the rich blue scheme set by the earlier windows would have made the church too dark!), making this my largest ever stained glass project and my only complete scheme of church windows to date.

 

In July 2012 a final touch was added when I painted the Sanctuary ceiling with a design of Seraphim and stars in blue and gold, a concept under discussion for some time to remedy the lack of structural emphasis on the altar area and create a more fitting focal point to the interior, with the angel's wings suggesting a canopy.

very basic lighting set up jewelry shot. minor editing. not an incredibly elaborate or "fancy" ring, but kind of minimal and it's clean. I was happy enough with it to post it, so... and shot with the 100mm on my k5iis. Pleased to get some nice macro shots using this lens. Had fun testing out this lens and seeing another side of my camera.

Nail sizes left to right

 

1. 2 inches

 

2. 3 1/4 inches

 

3. The nail set is 5 inches long.

 

4. The spike is 6 inches long

 

Additional tools that are very useful are:

 

1. A quilter's fiberglass tape with both inch and cm scales;

 

2. a set of dividers with sharp metal points;

 

3. A calculator with trig functions -- on your smartphone?

 

4. A black 'Sharpie' permanent marker with a fine point;

 

5. An 8 inch spike for making extra large holes;

 

Additional supplies:

 

1. Well insulated gloves;

 

2. Long handled pliers, preferably with an offset;

 

3. A fire proof quenching pail or pot;

 

4. Starter -- either 91% isopropyl alcohol or wood fire starting gel -- not fire pit fuel;

 

5. small jar or can for preparing starter;

 

6. Funnel and small sieve for making alcohol soaked wood pellet starter;

 

7. Electronic kitchen scale that will measure in grams and will calculate a tare.

 

8. A can opener that leaves no sharp edges.

 

Optional supplies:

 

A. Marshmallows;

 

B. Small hot dogs or sausages.

  

To start the pyrolysis, I use a One Match Gelled Fire Starter. Not too much. I drizzle some around the outer edges and criss cross the center. Starts with one match.

 

For larger iCans, such as those made from 3lbs Costco coffee cans, I use wood pellets soaked for two minutes in 91% isopropyl alcohol. I carefully drain ALL of the alcohol off the pellets before I sprinkle them on top of the wood pellets I use as a consistent test feed stock. You do not want alcohol starter to leak down into the feed stock as that will cause the pyrolysis zone to be uneven. The goal is to create a flat, shallow, and even pyrolysis zone that works its way down from the TOP, as in top lit, to the bottom.

 

As you progress in your work with iCans, you will see they offer a modular approach to a range of problems. I have one set of modules for grilling and frying. Another for boiling water, and another for converting a Weber grill into a Char-B-Que that harvests charcoal rather than burn it. I have not bought a lick of charcoal in several years.
