SOOC 2 - Pine Cones

2nd photo of the nifty fifty, straight out of camera challenge. Setting this up in the camera on manual to get what I wanted was enjoyable.

Thank you for your views, comments and favs on yesterday’s offering. Much appreciated.

Jaw-dropping!!!! How many shots did you take for this one?

[Phil Sandford]

@monikozi Took 3 or 4 on a black background that I didn’t like, swapped to the white backdrop, took 1 of a single pinecone, didn’t like it, added 2 more pinecones and took this. (Joy of having a screen to look at what the shot will be, which my old Pentax didn’t have back in the day)
