Day 177: The Tale of Two Forks<br /> This was inspired by a photo I saw in a magazine today.  This wasn't quite what I wanted but it's close enough and it's getting late.  No extension tube or close up lens here, just a 50mm f/1.4 cropped tightly.  Two light set up: one directly behind the subject to blowout the background and one to the camera right.
