Shotgun shell photographs

These are some photographs I took of shotgun shells.  I haven't shot a shotgun in ages but I had some ammunition around and decided I would photograph it.

The first couple of photographs are shotgun shells isolated on a white background.

Four shotgun shells

It was rainy this weekend and I couldn't do any hunting or fishing.  I took some photographs of different bullets including some 30-30, 22 caliber, 9mm, a 44 magnum and a 223.  I also took these photographs of shotgun shells.

Green, yellow and black shotgun shells.

 There were several different gauges involved as well as shot and a slug.

Ammunition photography

These are some photographs of ammunition I did over the weekend.  Some 9mm, 7.62, 44, .22, 30-30 and 30-06.  I photographed them using my Canon 5d Mark II with a kit lens and an Alien Bee 800.  It's been a long time since I I have gone out shooting.  I need to go out this year.  I want to do some more shots of the ammo but I didn't have time this weekend with the kids around and the Superbowl coming on.
