This is a good example of some of the more "studio" shots I do (often, as here, on digital with the D80). Currently my only lighting gear is an SB600 and some creativity. This is a cake my wife baked as part of her business.
I wanted a look similar to a treasure chest on a Caribbean beach somewhere under a bright sun. To achieve this I reflected some focussed light from the flash off of a large white foam board just out of shot on the left. This gives the impression of a large light source. Another board on the right provides "fill" and keeps shadows from becoming too dark.
