Painting with a Palette Knife - Mussel Shells, Acrylic Paint

Shot on a piece of plate glass, with black seamless taped to the bottom. Shaped hole cut to allow light to pass through. Glass was set on a 20" long piece of 12" diameter concrete form tube (Home Depot). I lined the tube with silver lame fabric from Jo-Anns, set it on top of a silver reflector fabric and suspended a 580 EX (@ 1/8th power ) 10" up and aimed down.

A 2nd 580 EX at 1/128th power on a light stand with Honl 20 deg grid is positioned camera right to bring back some of the texture of the shell.

The shells are over 100 years old and love them for their colours and textures.

52 Week Challenge - Week 12 - managed to get a nice sharp shot of this snail shell on a bench near the river :D

Does anyone know what this? I found it on beech somewhere in the Great Lakes. Shell, fossil, dentistry??? I've had it for years and still haven't figured it out.

Using the spiral shell design a a start, the experimenting led to something I "saw" as a future playground attraction. Giant video panels containing ever changing bold compositions of Nautilus shell imagery. Stuff that would delight the little ones. Maybe a few older ones also. Maybe add a tall strip of transparent steel (yet to be invented) on the left.
