cameo by summerfield

cameo

it's hard to do product photography, especially jewelry. the lighting and positioning is important to catch a viewer's interest. i wanted to be consistent with my tuesday high keys but i'm seriously running out of props. so this is all i have to offer for today.

i saw yesterday that the city workers were clearing the ice on the side of the road, mainly to get the traffic back to normal. i prayed that it wouldn't rain overnight and it didn't. so as soon as the sky lightened up, i grabbed my coat and went for my usual walk. every cell in my body was singing 'alleluia'. i did pass by a couple of icy patches, that were a tad challenging to navigate. one was a whole slab of the pavement, about five feet that was just plain ice, the one side was the road and traffic, the other was a mound of ice and fencing the sloped toward a ravine. so i backtracked, gaged the distance then ran and jumped over the thing. when i landed i almost lost my balance, but i must've looked like a drunken sod to the people in the cars. i went on as normal although my knee was complaining for a good ten minutes and i was limping for a while. then again at lunchtime, i went for a short walk but i crossed to the other side so i didn't pass by that darn portion of the sidewalk again. good lord! i haven't jumped like that since i was 14!
A lovely set of earrings! and nicely captured. I failed every attempts to capture jewelry :-)

I find it very hard to believe that YOU are running out of props! These are very elegant and a great photo of them with wonderful light which is neer easy with bling!

Jumping is something I do with rarity anymore and definitley jumping over ice (if we had any) will never happen again in my lifetime!

Love the way you are showing those beautiful earrings. They definitely deserve to have the photo to themselves.

Lovely earrings. I like how you have lit them without apparent shadows. Be careful with that jumping. You might shake something loose.

Meanwhile, this is fabulous.
