This was set up and shot on my dining room table. I need to get out more.
You can read about how it was done on my photo blog, Points of Light.

Oyster farming is a major business in Whitstable, and there are loads of restaurants and vendors selling them. You can even see the farmers collecting up the oysters each day and bringing them in.
The restaurant belonging to the Whitstable Oyster Company collects up the shells to use as fertiliser (known as cultch), and they stack them up at the back of the restaurant on the beach. The pile is huge and covered in flies, and I couldn't help thinking it was a little bit too close to the outdoor tables of the restaurant!

Just a shell I found at the north sea in Denmark. I don't know what exactly it is but it has to be very common as the beach was full of these. If anybody knows the exact name I'll be happy for a hint.
Strobist: Two Yongnuo 560III speedlites, one on each side of the camera. The one on the left through a Firefly II softbox, the other one bare. I placed a piece of styrofoam on each side of the shell. The speedlites were both triggered by a Yongnuo RF603II remote trigger. Focus stack of 28 pictures.
After a beautiful sunset the sky was colored in faded red and blue . In combination with the calm water, it was a nice background to the sea shells exposed due to low tide.

Second view of the Shell House in Berlin, Germany. The challange this time was to get rid of the interior lights that where shining through the windows. I hopefully removed them acurately using the old "Wischfinger" technique (German photoshoppers probably will know this).
Besides this, here are the metadata:
Camera: Canon EOS 450D
ISO 100
Focal length: 66mm (on APS-C)
Aperture: f/2,8

Maple Leaf Pasta Shells
This composition of pasta shells kept reminding of a maple leaf and once that thought takes hold, it's hard to shake.
Storm Dennis kept me indoors so macro work on the kitchen table passed the time.

Sea Shell, is a hard, protective outer layer created by an animal that lives in the sea. The shell is part of the body of the animal. Empty seashells are often found washed up on beaches by beachcombers. The shells are empty because the animal has died and the soft parts have been eaten by another animal or have decomposed.I found these on Llandudno Pier.

I was starting to forget how to actually take pictures that don't directly relate to my dreary life so thought I'd be a swot today to make up for my reckless weekend.

Shell Keeley Shoot…
I photographed the FABULOUS Shell Keeley recently. We met up and had tea at the Rococo Coffee House, in Liverpool. It was the first time I had met Shell, but we had been in touch via msgs on Facebook and such, so it didn’t really feel like our first meeting. I had wanted to photograph her because she simply looks divine, in her genuine vintage clothes PLUS she is the sweetest lady. So here we are, sat by the window in this rococo styled coffee shop, having a good old chin-wag, topics ranging from Vincent Price to Bette Davis, it wasn’t long before our cups were empty. So I set up my lights & we shot away.
We then packed up, Shell made a quick out-fit change (1930’s German red dress), and we were gone.
NEXT UP…
OUT DOOR SHOTS
We had a little wander about, taking pictures with just natural daylight. Stunning results with backlighting from the sun. Shell has the BEST eyes, so I took lots of close-up shots with an aperture of F/1.7 at 100 ISO, with my Pentax manual focus lens.
Really happy with the results, and you wouldn’t believe it was Shell’s first ever photo session. Beautiful pictures of a beautiful person, with the most impeccable manners. A true lady.
