Chromatic Toothpicks

I have to be completely honest…I stumbled upon this today when I was retrieving these toothpicks for their typical use. I opened the container, and believe it or not, they were distributed like this already. The bright colors really grabbed my attention, and I was in need of an image for today anyway. I didn’t use any special lighting or reflectors for this image. I simply grabbed a scrap of matte board as a background, purely because it was within arms-reach. I also propped up a sheet of cheap printer paper nearby to serve as a make-shift reflector, filling in the shadows cast by the container itself. For the amount of time it took me to set up, capture, and edit this image, I think it turned out pretty good.
