  Just two lights that I purchased about 7 years ago. They were positioned left and right at an angle of 45° to the table’s surface but along the diagonal of the image.

  The camera is mounted on a horizontal boom that is parallel to the table.

  Finally, I managed to bump the exposure of the image too high. Here’s the corrected version where you can see more of the shadows.

    Very nice! I like the soft box effect

    I have a similar setup with a horizontal boom, but I’m usually too lazy to do top down shots 😅

      It is tiresome with things that are reflective. I always have to make sure that the camera’s reflection is not in the shot.
