i swallowed a really big watermelon

"professor" bill @bill_fe gave me an assignment for this week. it is to take seven photos of one small object. i chose this little guy that's just sitting on my window sill, just smiling there and showing his big tummy. i don't know what those characters in the banner it's holding mean. maybe it says i'm a sweetheart. or most probably something derogatory. i forgot who gave it to me.

so there you go, prof billy!

taken with natural window light only, it's overcast outside (because it's raining). shot in colour of course!

also for the six-word story challenge that's going on right now.

thank you for your kind visits and comments; know that they are truly and greatly appreciated.
@bill_fe - here's shot #1

Magnificent! Low-key, simple, negative space! FAVulous!!

So you took seven photos and layered them together? Its got to be good to see the laughing face!

@maggiemae - hehehe. no, not layered. i think the idea is to take seven unique photos of the same object. it's supposed to stimulate one's creativity and/or find one's phojo if it's missing. so tomorrow's shot will be different but this guy would still be the subject, and so forth. thank you, maggiemae.

@summerfield It does sound like something I would like to do but right now I have my own august project I am focusing on!
August 11th, 2015  
Is he still sitting in the window?
August 11th, 2015  
@lesip - nope, taking centre stage until such time i decide how else to shoot it!

wonderful low key shot! (love the "7 of 1" tag :)
August 11th, 2015  
Love this! The lighting is perfect.
August 11th, 2015  
@summerfield I like it! Nice comp and excellent lighting.
August 11th, 2015  
Super low key capture and great use of negative space

I should maybe give this idea a bash. My enthusiasm and motivation is at an all time low at present.
August 11th, 2015  
@salza - yes, yes! please join in. tag is seven-of-one. please see bill's second shot, he's just posted it. thank you, sally.

I love the title, great lighting and use of negative space.
August 11th, 2015  
That's quite a challenge. Not sure I could do that.
August 11th, 2015  
Didn't we used to call this "same subject"? Seven of one sounds so much more artistic! Looks like you've chosen a good subject.
August 12th, 2015  
Oh, I love these fat Buddhas!! I will be interested to see what you can do with this little guy for seven days!
