I think the lighting adds to the photo. That's what makes you different. - Dave

Thank you Eric. Your tips and ideas are within my budget. I do have a fire extinguisher. I will give it a try and I'll let you know. See ya.

My budget is about the same. Well... This might be dangerous since your lamp is from the 60's, but you could place a piece of white typing paper, notebook paper, or tissue paper (test out what each density does to your shadows) in front of your "spot" light. This will help to defuse your light so that your shadows are so harsh (hopefully it won?t burst into flames). You could also try to reflect your ?spot? light off a white poster board or even the dull side of some foil. You might want to make sure that your ?oven light? and ?spot? light are shining at different angles, being careful to notice if it causes some unnatural shadows. Move your lights around until you find that sweet spot. I hope this helps. Let me know if any of these work. If you try the paper cover then keep a fire extinguisher handy  )

I knew somebody would call me on this. I have a very unorthodox lighting system. I placed the shells on top of the stove and used the light above it plus a light from a a 60's movie camera (1 of the bulbs is still original and strong enough to destroy a cane sugar crop) and then just darken it with SP). If you got any ideas, please share. My budget is about $5. Thank you Eric.

Nautical world in your veins my friend (mine as well I suppose), and the things around your house continue to entertain ? you, and those who see them.

Interesting shot... It looks like your lighting is a little off. The light coming from the bottom left (shinning upward) is a little too harsh. Maybe if you had filler light or a gray/white reflector board on the top right or even slightly above, you could soften your shadows. The tones and focus seem to be okay; of course the tones are a little dark due to the lighting. I apologize if you were going for the harsh shadows (let me know). I'm trying to better my lighting, so I've been looking at what others are doing. Nice Pic.
