I enjoy combining many seemingly unrelated objects into a cohesive composition and telling a story too. The theme is reading by candlelight so, in addition to the candle and books, I added a red candle holder, an alarm clock, and pears. I felt that his creation needed some lovely pink lilies to bring it together. The pink glass vase matched the pink lilies. This arrangement has a classic, still-life feel with a soft, blurred textured background.
July 4th 2017
I went to a friend’s house for the 4th of July celebration. While everyone was inside, I walked outside and took some ordinary pictures of the porch, house, and surrounding parked cars. I edited these with Lightroom, Photoshop, and Nik software to achieve some unusual results of everyday, ordinary object.
