You need to post your pens in the show off your pens forum. I think more people would see them and they should be seen by all. Fantastic work on all of them. But my eye drew to your photo set-up and I love the blue background the best. It makes the pens jump out with the use of the crystal block behind it. I do not like the way the pens are proped against it but that is a topic for another day.
Could you tell me abit about your setup for the photos with the blue background and what are you using and what the block is made of??? Is this something you made or bought??? Very nice work and thanks for showing.
Hello jttheclockman'll explain how to make pictures.
It's simple, I use a blue card to the bottom of the photograph, and a light hint of white daylight. How to make the background and the light can be seen in the photograph attached.
the bucket I use for pen holder is made of acrylic and can be bought in malls and stores of photography, the optical effect is very good. The camera is set to automatic but before doing photography I make a white balance.
to hold the pen and make the picture without movement problems use a material called Blue-Tac and a plastic adhesive.
These are the pictures of my latest work
