Mexican Glass Skull with Cactus Head Dress

Our photo group, Pacific Photographic Society has partnered with Quadrant Studios to have our studio shoots and seminars held there.
Today we practiced photographing various objects in light boxes using different types of lighting.
Each attendee was asked to bring an item to photograph. I brought this Glass Skull.

The image above was taken for the Weekly Informal Challenge (Week 153): "Going Green"

What shadows there are -- are delicate and supportive; lovely tone and crisp color.

Very pretty piece in spite of what it is. The light box worked really well. No blown areas at all. Great colors and focus. V.
