Well whilst on holiday I got inspired to play with some gemstones and my sigma 150mm macro - so I got some gemstones and a few bits of amathyst and placed them on a white sheet on a window ledge. I used the sun comming in through the window as a backlight and my 580M2 as a front lightsource (I used some toilet paper to diffuse flash light a bit as well). This is the first time I have ever done anything like this and I am very please with what I managed to get - though there were one or two where I wanted a greater depth of field - and a very few where I missed getting the focus right on the closest part.
