Day 72 - Shell


     We're always trying to come up with something so shoot. Some days are harder than others and today was particularly hard. Nothing we came up with I felt like shooting, that is until Stacey recommended I shoot this shell. It became a test shot for a future still life. I grabbed some of my red sand (yes I keep red sand sitting around) and set up the quick test shot. I don't like the crop but the angle of the shot works for me. A few more adjustments and I should be able to come up with something printable.

Day 71 - Arrangement


     Stacey and I were messing around with an arrangement to shoot and this is one of the ideas we came up with. It could use a few more rocks I think but it looks nice.

Day 69 - Stacked Flower


     Today you get another two shots. My friend Chip convinced me to undertake doing stacked shots this week. This is something I've been wanting to try for a while and am happy I did. These are great fun to shoot. The first image uses 4 separate images and the second one uses 7. If anyone is really that interested in the technique I used just let me know and I'll add it.

     7D and EF100mm f/2.8 Macro USM (1\200 sec @ F/9, ISO100). I used one B800 bounced off the ceiling to light.
