Upon opening a packet of loose tea, I looked very closely and saw the interesting variance of the shapes of the scrunched-up tea leaf fragments.
All I did for this was get the teaspoon set at the angle I wanted and sprinkled some tea over it. I didn't re-arrange the tea, it's just as it fell.
It's very much a product-style shot, but I don't mind that; I just consider it as trying out doing some product photography. My basic aim of capturing the shape and details of dry tea leaves was fulfilled; the setting also puts them in the context of their use.
Settings: f/6.7, 1/180, ISO 100, 50mm Cosinon M42, 10mm extension ,glass, white & foil reflectors, tripod.
