Poor Naomi recently had to have one of her molars extracted. She was permitted to keep the tooth as a keepsake. Naturally I wanted to photograph it :) Nomi thinks it's gross, but I kinda like the raw brutality of the image, and the obvious connotation of the pain involved in extracting it. Nomi is recovering well, incidentally, after some initial pain and discomfort that passed after a few days.
I tried a couple of new things with this photo. I wanted to display it without any obvious mount, and against black, neither of which I have done with a macro shot before. Also for the shot without the coloured backlight, I tried focus stacking to increase the depth of field. I'll try to write a tutorial about how I set up and processed this shot in the future.
