In my last month of the project I'm going to try and push myself to cross off some of the ideas from a (very!) long list I have built up of from 365 Friends of things "I must try".
So, here we go, never tried this before! Not the best image in the world but there is a limit to the amount of time you can spend arranging the pages of a (photography, please note) magazine just to take a photo!
Thanks for all your recent comments and follows - appreciate them all.
I think that worked a treat!! Very well executed.....if you need any tips on water shots don't hesitate to ask Jackie S !! Be prepared to get wet though!! Are you leaving us when your time is up?
Great tones and a nice idea to start crossing off things from your bucket list. For this shot I might've chosen to compose this in halves - I mean, the mag in the center, with equally wide sections of table and wall (and that way also the full reflection on the tabletop). There'd be more symmetry. However, it's just my view, yours is equally valid. :) On a side note - I love that tabletop, you get some really nice reflections with it. :)
Simply lovely, Peter. I love the reflections on the table top. I hope this will not be your "last" month, just your last month of your 365. Hopefully you will continue on.
@fannyb Fanny - this and Henri's comment are strangely co-somethingorother (sibilant, no, that's sound, resonant, perhaps). I will certainly be stopping regular shots on 365, although I have got to thinking that I might do weekly market day shots? What do you think?
@henrir Henri - what a sweet thought. Yes, I meant last month on the project, thank you for the correction :-)
I must try this too! Its worked out really well! I do like your matter of fact approach to how long we should spend on a photo set up......! Do you detect a slight desperation creeping into our projects now..... A bit like the last supper of 365! How about water crowns, are you up for trying them, think that'll be my next photo!
@peadar Heh, I know that problem! I'm beginning to think that I should do some remodeling - my study into a studio, as most of my indoors shots suffer from lack of space. Because I suppose you can't really help it if you run out of wall or table! :)
Wonderful Peter, very creative! I love creativity in photography although haven't done much myself. I cannot believe scrolling down to write a comment I noticed my sister-in-law on the other side of the world has commented on this photo too! It certainly is a small world!
I must remember to try this out.

@jdonnelly Thanks, Joseph. It's quite fiddly!
