I have a sand pit – I have some shells – I have some stones – I couldn’t get past the size of the grains of sand I have – any still life just didn’t look real (‘life like’) – However, your effective use of focal length/narrow dof, may very well be an approach that moves me along the line I want to go (though I think I’m going to have to get some finer grained sand anyway.
Cheers
Thanks for the explanation Stephen and good luck with your shots!
Nicely done.
Thanks for the inspiration AND a potential solution to a photographic problem I was struggling to see past!
Stephen I am curious about the potential solution offered by this image! Can you explain? Glad I could inspire!

Liking this a lot. And I find myself really wanting to see a second crop – one that gets up close and works to the golden mean structure of the shell.
