Match-fire

A matchstick photographed in my apartment using Alien Bee strobes on either side, with gobo's flagging light off of the background. Depth of field was shallow, but I felt the actual flame carried the image. Around 2:1 ratio.

Macro: Toothpicks

Another macro photograph, this time of some wooden toothpicks. This was shot with chrome. Huh? Chrome!! Oh.. This was actually really easy to light, I just used a speedotron, pointing it downward onto the scene. The ratio is around 2.85:1, or 2.85 magnification.
