TITLE: Sapphire Shimmer

DESCRIPTION: January 7, 2008 Camera: Nikon D70 Shutter: 1/100 seconds F-Stop: f/5.6 Focal Length: 135mm When I took this photograph, I had no experience in a studio setting. It was a challenge to get the lighting set up the way I wanted while trying to prevent shadows. After I figured out the set up, all I had to do was play around with the focus and use different angles. I wanted to create an image that would look somewhat like an advertisement from a magazine. This photo gives a bold look to a soft subject.
