I just put them in a cardboard box, shine a light on it and snap a few photos. I only do this because I have no space to set up and leave a still life. I'll try to remember to post a few sample shots the next time I have a photo session :)Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08559534274200050929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6391600460847704245.post-30798842821714699212009-08-01T17:05:25.992-04:002009-08-01T17:05:25.992-04:00I love realism and the rocks look very real!
