Location

Leica SL2, Sigma 50mm, PCB DigiBees strobes. Rotalux softboxes.Inspiration
This image is part of a series, taken in the same seated position, using ONE main colour with the focus on some food item.Editing
I shoot tethered using C1, but I do my initial post in LR and then final tweaks in PS.In my camera bag
I shoot almost exclusively in studio. I have my main camera and a 50 and 24 mm lens. I always shoot tethered to a MacBook Pro using capture1. My shooting rig I use an L-bracket on the camera, so the camera itself becomes very heavy so I always try to shoot on a tripod.Feedback
I used real eggs for this, but I used larger duck eggs. Not only are they bigger than normal eggs (slightly) but the shells I found were somewhat smoother. make sure you til the eggs first!!!! Then paint them.
