When I removed the outer layer from this garlic head, it seemed especially photogenic. Then when I viewed the image file on my computer monitor, I realized the tear on one of the cloves could be an interesting subject itself. So, I made two photos of the same garlic head.
Setups
Photo #1: The background and tabletop are a single sheet of brown presentation paper. A flashlight on the right front lit the subject and a manilla envelope on the left, which cast warm tones on the subject.
Photo #2: The background and tabletop are a single sheet of translucent vellum. The main light is medium continuous-light lamp on the right and another on the left lifted the shadow tones on that side of the scene.
Focus Stacking
Photo #1: 21 focus-bracketed images at Camfi Ranger step size Small stacked in Helicon Focus at default settings.
Photo #2: The same as Photo #1 except that 21 focus-bracketed images were used.
