      Care to share some tech on what it takes to get such good closeup suspension shots?

      Steve always has some nice shots!! What kind of gear you shooting with Steve? Lighting? Using a macro for some of these shots I assume?

      I typically use a Canon 40D with either a 10-22 wide angle lense or my 28-135 IS lens (macro). I always shoot tech with a tripod and use a slower shutter speed so I can strobe a flash around the image. This gets rid of harsh shadows. For each of those shots I typically take 5 to 8 shots of different "exposures" which is called bracketing.

      By messing with the f-stop I can "kill" the background and make it out of focus. This causes the eye to focus on the subject and not get distracted with background.
