I got the idea from the following excellent website on lapidary jewelry http://lapidaryart.com/project_images/prj1014.html <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>This person has a great website with several demos and naturally, great photography. Please take a look at her photos - they are outstanding. The drop shadow box I created is much less elegant (then again with me, form always did follow function). I took two USPS priority boxes and taped them together to make a bigger box. I then cut to fit a sheet of blue posterboard obtained from a local Wal Mart. Friction against the inside of the box keeps the posterboard in place. It curves upward to the top of the box which produces the shadow gradient. I then took two photofloods (don't know the temps or wattage) and placed them in flexible "goose-neck" style desk lamps with "hi-tech" 8 x 10 inch photocopier paper used as diffusers. By varying the angle of the lamps as they shine into the box, the gradient inside the box (the background) rises up and down. <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>Also, if you construct one as I did, be aware that these bulbs get extremely hot. I only turned them on the take the picture then I turned them off. You WILL get burned badly if you touch them while they are hot. <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>The camera I used is one I have had for about 1.5 years. It is a Fujifilm finepix 1400. It has a setting in manual mode (I finally got around to reading the manual) for incandescent lighting, which solved much of the unnatural color in prior photos. I also had to play with the exposure values, + and -, to get a pleasing final product. No imaging software was used. The photos are straight from the camera. I used a lot of bracketing. Here is a picture of my "setup." <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>http://www.branchmeteorites.com/temp/DSCF0209.JPG <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>Like I said, it's not pretty, but it works. <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>Next, I would like to experiment with different colors such as red and gray. I also need to improve the appearance of irons. They still have that "wet" look, as is evident on that picture of the Sikhote-Alin. I will probably add a third central photoflood as in the demo at the website noted above. I will also likely build a larger box (made out of wood) with an adjustable platform for larger specimens and translucent top material. <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>If anyone else has any ideas for taking photos of meteorites, please share. <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>Best wishes, <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>-Walter <DIV></DIV>>----------------------------------------------- <DIV></DIV>>Walter Branch, Ph.D. <DIV></DIV>>Branch Meteorites <DIV></DIV>>322 Stephenson Ave., Suite B <DIV></DIV>>Savannah, GA 31405 USA <DIV></DIV>>www.branchmeteorites.com <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV></mailto:meteorite-list-request_at_meteoritecentral.com?subject=unsubscribe></mailto:meteorite-list-request@meteoritecentral.com?subject=subscribe></mailto:meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com></mailto:meteorite-list-request@meteoritecentral.com?subject=help></div><br clear=all><hr>Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: <a href='http://g.msn.com/1HM1ENCA/c152??PI=44318'>Click Here</a><br></html> Received on Sat 20 Jul 2002 01:22:53 PM PDT |
