2 years, 11 months ago2 years, 11 months agoNathan thank you! I have done them kind of like that before, I think using a card to reflect light into the shadows and a black velvet background will greatly improve my pictures.

3 years ago3 years agoI need to figure out a better lighting situation, this is regular flash.

@Bill-Heim, @Nathan-Newell, and @Delwin-Glasner would probably be able to give you some advice. They’re photo pros.

Did you retake the pictures because the lighting looks ok to me?

I didn’t retake them, but I think Nathan’s advice will improve my future pictures.

@hunter-thurmond Hi, Hunter! Flash can wash out some of the details of fossils, so I use directional lighting. I don’t do anything too fancy, though; I just don’t have the time or money to create an elaborate studio. Here’s my set-up:

Hi, @Hunter-Thurmond! Do you have any photos with better lighting? Also, @Katie-Collins-2, can you confirm this ID? Thank you both!

It’s definitely a Plicatula! Nice specimen, @hunter-Thurmond 🙂 One further photography tip: bivalves are usually illustrated with the hinge at the top (i.e. 180 degrees to how you have your first and third photos here), and it helps to compare to published illustrations for ID checking if everything is the same way up.
