(Day 345) - The Apple of My Eye

I love minimalism and negative space in photography. CJ decided to try it out on his own today. He said he would do something similar to me and compose the apple at the top right corner of his frame. I loved composing little CJ and the apple on opposite ends with all that empty space in the center. Think it's the first time I created negative space in the center of an image. :)
Super clever and well executed!

@jyokota and I mentioned you a lot today as we were in the lego store. I DO love this one -- fabulous idea and so well executed.
January 24th, 2018  
Clever 👍👍👍

I just love the feeling of fun you exude!

@taffy - You were in one of the best stores on the planet and you didn't invite me? :D Haha. I'm like a kid in a candy store there! So many great sets, items, and colors. Hope you two had fun!!

He is so nonchalant! That Apple could seriously fly down andsmash him.
January 25th, 2018  
Well done.
January 25th, 2018  
Well that zoom lens CJ has should be able to capture that far-away apple! As Taffy said, we mentioned you as we rummaged through all the possibilities . . . soon you will see our purchases!

Pretty Cool on a black background!!

The unusual and eyecatching composition makes for a great image.
January 25th, 2018  
Awesome shot
January 25th, 2018  
This really works! Fav
January 25th, 2018  
Great shot and idea, I love how you balanced this shot in terms of placement and colour coordination.

Did he catch the apple on its way up or down?
January 26th, 2018  
Now that is creative composition!

with the thumbnails i thought there was nothing in it! :-D
January 26th, 2018  
Wow- the perspective and high key make it look like CJ better duck!
January 26th, 2018  
Had to see what the "white square" represented! Clever, my friend!

@summerfield @Weezilou - I actually did not expect the middle to be all white in the thumbnail! I guess the middle truly is negative space! Thanks for the awesome comment! :)

@kjarn - CJ says it was falling down (in actuality I stuck a rod through the apple to keep it in the air and then edited it out in post-processing). :)
January 26th, 2018  
I did guess you had done something like that
January 26th, 2018  
@kjarn - Yep! This way was much easier and protected CJ from a nasty collision with fruit! :P
January 26th, 2018  
The thumbnail is awesomely, totally, negative white space. Go, CJ!

@mcsiegle - It's still throwing me off every time I look at it! Haha. Thanks and glad you liked it Mary.
