Quartz Crystals

Quartz Crystals
When you look at a crystal with facets, you move it to see the reflected light.  For a still photograph of something with facets, it seems to me that one must work with lighting to show the faces to success.  I experimented with this Quarts yesterday.  I wanted to show the large face in the front center.  In addition to the side lights, I used another flood to illuminate that face.  I also lit the bottom so that the overall lightness of the translucent to transparent crystal was not dark.  I think that it was a good exercise for me.
