Still Life in the Studio….

    My first ever attempt at still life in the studio. c&c welcome. It was bloody difficult to try to get flowers into the right position – I need one of those spongy boxes that flower arrangers use, but I’m too tough to go in and buy one… :oops:
    These were shot with the idea of getting something for the NIPA ‘Simplicity’ round which is due in the next week or so. I liked the backlighting on the yellow flower

    Nice shots for that NIPA round, my favourite is the last shot, good composition. I like the backlighting in the first but would also like to see it lit from the front just to see the difference.
    Those spongy boxes are called “Oasis”.
    Ooops, that I actually just admit to knowing what they are! :oops:

    Here you go……… :)

    My own view is that in order of posting, numbers 3 and 5 are the strongest??

    “Pear Hug” :

    Fully agree with you Ross. Numbers three and five are definitely the strongest, with number five just edging it. Pear Hug. Fabulous title, beautifully composed and exposed image. Simplicity indeed.

    Thanks Rob – I agree that 5 is better than 3, and it is probably the one I will submit.
