Pen Photography
John Lucas
>All you pen makers out there, don't laugh too hard. These are my first 2 pens. the rest have all been given away.
Here is my small product shooting rig. I use a white stryofoam cooler with some part of it cut out. figure out what angle you want to shoot the pens and then postion the cooler so it will cover the pens but not show up in the camera.
I use one quartz light with my digital camera set to the tungsten setting. I overexposed by 2/3 f stop because I had so much white in the scence. Looked great on my monitor but was a little orange when I brought it up on photoshop. I think that's a computer thing. I used the eyedropper tool to correct it back to white.
