Some grapes and things a bit grunge'd out. I am sorry about not keeping current with my comments, still trying to find a 'new' comfortable spot to plop down with my laptop. My back hasn't given me a complete green light for any chair to do so, yet.
What a classic looking still life & the sepia tones (Parchment?) gives it such age and depth...interesting contrast with the clear glass cup and saucer.
@tinley23 Thank you so much, I will but I basically love to slouch about.
@30pics4jackiesdiamond Thank you so kindly for the fav. My back is just fussy not that I'm doing anything wrong :-)
@fbailey Most grateful for the fav. I am trying to be good but lazy is so tempting :-)
@granagringa This started out as a study in light but I have limited equipment so I wasn't sure what to do. It occurred to me to try a grunge texture layer on top (found that on line). Blended with multiply in Photoshop.
Cool. Love it. Hope your back gets better. I feel guilty for not commenting but after spending all working day on the computer, enough seems like enough. Still trying to make that (not commenting) be ok!
@francoise Thank you so kindly, very grateful for the fav. Getting on in experience is taking its toll but I'll darned if I will let it control me.Okay, now pass the tylenol...
So sorry to hear you've got a bad back. Both Les and I have crook backs. I like the effect you have on the shot but agree with Jane re tightness. @jgpittenger
@golftragic Thank you so much. My back just seems to have sense of humor- I think that I was trying to capture the reflection at the bottom but you and Jane have good points about the tightness at the top.
@taffy You are so kind,very grateful for the fav. I think that I might re-shoot this idea with more 'room' , using Jane's and Marnie's suggestion and consider getting it printed on metal
I absolutely love this! It is so professional looking. Perfect lighting especially on the fruit. Love the grunge. Agree with Jane's and Marnie's suggestion for more room at the top. I hope you do reshoot or stretch in photoshop and print - It would be fabulous!
Hope your back starts behaving.
Oh i understand about the back and finding a comfortable spot. I hope you find relief soon. As for this picture, i really like the processing with the aged textures...fit’s the subject really well.
Excellent still life. I wish there was just a little more room at the top, but I know what it's like to try and get a shot like this while taking care of a sore back. I hope it has begun to feel better. I love the processing too. fav!
@pixelchix Thank you so very kindly, I have been doing the exercises from PT and they are definitely helping.
@olivetreeann Never give up, never surrender (Galaxy Quest), I do try to follow that but aches and stuff sometimes have a louder voice that I care for. I bought more grapes and am going to try re-staging this with a more comfortable margin at top.
@jernst1779 Thank you so very very much. I hadn't really thought about using the grunge overlay until afterwards but I am going to try again. My back is getting better or I really must admit that I am following my PT instructions closer :-)
