Can't go out to play so...
So I thought I'd get out the bathroom mirror that I saved for whatever reason when the guys gutted the bathroom.
I thought it would be fun to use them this winter in some of my Still Life work.
Again, this was an easy set up. I put the mirror down on top of a plastic tote and then simply began to arrange things around.
The egg was a wild idea. Yes, it is a raw egg and no, there was nothing holding it in place. It looks like the egg-s are suspended.
Rich wasn't feeling good so instead of taking the hike at the Kickapoo Reserve to see the unfinished dam, I decided to stick around the house.
I got out some of my cups, rings, and baubles and arranged them in different manners. I didn't use any other light than that which came in from the window behind me.
I would love to do some light experiments soon though.
I used old necklaces and other items I have in my 'junk' box. I used a doily I found at the flea market as a backdrop along with an old white table cloth.
The silver rings and ribbon came from a wedding invitation that my daughter in law made. Yes I sometimes keep odd things.
And not all are keepers. The photos were okay, but didn't really have any zip or WOW factor.
And then I did this.
And it made it worth it.
I was happy that I stayed inside and didn't go out ... to play.
Spectacular shots! You have a great sense of composition and color. Wow! So rich.
ReplyDeleteThank you Lori, I just like to have some fun when I can. And arranging things does that for me!
