Food - Spanish Style Garlic Shrimp

I was going though our magazine junk last week and saw a cookbook that collected dust as thick as the cookbook itself. Decided to flip through the pages and saw a recipe on how to prepare a spanish style Garlic Shrimp. I've always been a shrimp lover and when I saw this, I said to myself, "Got to make this dish".

After a few minutes of reading the recipe, off to the kitchen I go. Thirty minutes later;



If you're wondering how the image was taken. Here's a photo of the setup:


Canon 580 EX II with a shoot thru umbrella on camera right, bounce card on camera left to fill in the shadows. Trigerred by PW II. If you're wondering what is that paper behind the shrimp, yes, that is the cookbook. Image was taken with a Canon DSLR camera fitted with a Canon 100mm Macro Lens. Exposure 1/125 @ f6.3, ISO 100.

I've decided to submit this photo to the Strobist BootCamp II Assignment 2. Wish me luck!!!
