Still Life Update

Just a little something new taken back at the very end of December in my desktop light tent. A very high key still life in blue. There was only one of it so not a huge amount of stuff to show here this month, but I am pleased with the outcome.

Still Life / Fine Art Gallery – Update

A bit of a mixed bag of goodies this month. So let me start with the black and white pictures. These images were actually taken a very long time ago when I was experimenting with light and long exposures. The originals were in colour, but I felt they were a bit too bright and at the time I did not know how to get around the problem in Photoshop. So I left them … Only to find them again earlier this month and have a look gain. I cooled the brightness down and turned them black and white. Problem solved.

The second set of pictures feature a collection of nine shots of a yellow spotted vase I purchased from a charity shop for a few pennies, and liked the look of it. The spots on the vase are painted daisies and as there are no daisies this time of the year, I purchase some from Etsy.

They are fake and made of paper, but look the part and were very dainty. Great thing is I can put them away in the box and use again another day..

I hope you all enjoy this months Still Life gallery?

Still Life / Fine Art Gallery - Update

Only two pictures for this month and they were taken in my kitchen using a Halo Lamp I purchased from Amazon in one case to produce the intense red colour. The flower is a tulip Amy had grown in the garden and had well past its sell by date, but still looked photogenic.
