Still Life Props by 30pics4jackiesdiamond

Still Life Props

The theme this week is still life. My plan is to use only these props during the week, in differing compositions but I will not add anything to this random-ish collection:-

chess set, vase (flowers may change), candlestick, candle, paraffin lamp, Alladin's lamp, champagne bottle and glass, watch, hour-glass, wedding photograph, tiara, teacup and saucer, fairy lights.

Darn it, I fogot the fruit!

The theme is to give an insight into my life, and I want to expand on the this by experimenting and improving on studio lighting, using the light box He bought me a while back. I'll write a narrative to maķe links with the items, it might be fictional ( to borrow from @francoise skills) there may be truth there too.

I checked with Ann, who is organising Flash of Red and she liked the idea!!
Those are amazing props Jackie! With your creativity you are bound to come up with some spectacular images 😊

Hmmm, you have chosen to use lots of props Jackie, maybe mine was a bit minimalist??

@365anne I love yours!! Mine will get less crowded and more thematic, but today too full of cold to faff with composition.
@momamo no idea how they'll pan out
@ludwigsdiana varied if not spectacular!!

They are all so well displayed - very crafty to catch all of those interesting combinations. It will be nice to see them individually highlighted. :)
