Gold ring with aquamarine stone
Date : April 2003
Technical Info : Nikon F2,105/2 DC Nikkor + PN 11,Velvia,tripod,cable release
Exposure : 1/30 @ F7
Scanning/Post Processing : Scanned with Nikon 4000ED. Edited in Photoshop
Notes : This was an experimental attempt at photographing small objects in a "light tent" using a light box(which I normally use for viewing slides on) as a light source. I used a light box and a small skirt of white paper(thin A4 inkjet paper folded round into a tube) as a light tent to give some defuse light to the surfaces and control unwanted reflections.
