Day 34 - 3rd Febraury 2010

We do it with Pumpkins so why not do it with an apple. (I used my flash by the way, not a candle).
I had fun this evening :D



How I did it...

Hollowed out the apple and poked 3 holes up by the stalk in the hope that the flash would slightly illuminate the stalk.



Placed the apple on the middle of my table where it comes apart and put the flash on a chair underneath.



To serve as a model lamp, I used one of my continuous studio lights.
I used a baking tray, covered in foil, to serve as a reflector and made a tin foil cone to help the flash illuminate the apple.
