I was asked by a vet to photograph sections of brains for him to study.
I was happy to do so but the images turned out to be a flop.
Sometimes the formol was returning reflexes and the separation from the background was not the best one.
Perhaps I will have to use a dark and not reflecting background. I was too confident and I was wrong.
I was using the 24-70 at macro mode - I mean near "macro mode" - with a flash ring and a tripod.
The second photograph is a magnificent example of what I do not want to get.
Perhaps my problem is precisely the ring flash and I will have to use another source of light, something like a cubic plastic box with the flashes - two - at the sides...
It is something I will have to try.
Do you have any tips on this matter please ? Thank you.
