KITTY. what the **** dude. this shot is too gorgeous to just be casually floating around.
what are you shooting on??? insane.
Thanks! I shoot a Sony A7, 90mm lens with extension tubes. Just recently got into learning how this macro photography thing works
are you using the Sony 90mm lens? Or some other lens with an adapter?
1980s-ish Leica Summicron M Mount 90mm. I use the Novolflex adapter. The Sony A7 series appealed to me because of how easy it is to use older lenses.
More importantly.. What did you use for lighting/backdrop?
Seriously, that's an astoundingly good photo. Great job.
Its on my desk, which is a glossy grey. I put my iPhone on the desk near it with the flash light pointing up. Then I held a piece of white paper above it to bounce soft light on the cap, which also brightened up the glossy surface.
oh cool, i'm going to have to try this. i love low tech photo taking solutions. :)
I do things as lazily as possible! Especially for tiny objects, you can throw something together quite easily, as long as your not beholden to a specific aesthetic.
