Super narrow depth of field keeps just the toe shoe in focus. Shooting with a 28 mm lens, the lighting presents a problem - you cannot have any light on the table; otherwise, you will see scratches on the glass and reflections, but if you wait too late in the day, you won't have any light under the shoe â remember that everything below the glass has to be wrapped in black.
