Antonio,

Why does it need to be repeated ever?

Is this your teeth or a teaching setup?

I imagine its the latter because of the copper metal.

The background is not uniform and I want it with much better light.

Only a dentist would have such a paper weight!

Err...you might want to swap your camera for a nice x-ray of this. <g>

This is great to look at as is. The shape and color is so rich!

Asher

P.S. I'd love to have that to shoot on my black enameled grand piano. The reflected colors would be great!

You might try a larger light source (i.e., bounce flash off the ceiling) to soften the specular highlights which is further from the subject to balance the illumination. Or you might put this on a cardboard box with a hole in it and light it from beneath to get a glowing look. What do you want from the light?

enjoy,

Sean
