My entry in this weeks theme - Traditions I've pick a wedding tradition in the UK, it's traditional for the bride to wear one of the following items at her wedding:- Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed, Something Blue,
I've laid my items on a photograph taken at my sons wedding clearly not items that a bride would wear, this image was set up and taken today so hopefully will be considered as taken this week.
@quietpurplehaze Thank you very much for your comments I know Jenny had all four things cos we discussed it as I set up the shot, both my daughter and daughter-in-law had the four including Jenny's veil and some of her jewellery so we maintained the tradition:)
very creative and 'arty'.. your lighting looks impeccable. i think this is a fine interpretation of the traditional wedding rhyme.
Wow, you've been a photographer for all those years, your life must be well documented and that of your family and environment.
@onewing Thank you Babs yes it would appear its still going strong over here, Jenny and Sarah have loaned items to Sarah's friends I even got loaned out to Sarah's best friend who I had know most of her life to walk her down the church and give her away as her father was lost in a car crash when she was 11 years old:)
@jorlam Thank you for your great comments they are appreciated, I was given my first camera by my dad on my 10th birthday and still have it complete with original box and instructions, its a Plastic Kodak Brownie 127, I have kept a few of my old cameras and all the ones from the year 2000 on, posted an image of some of the in January 2014, https://365project.org/pcoulson/365/2014-01-03
and yes we have photographs going back to the last century all taken be me, lol:)
@pcoulson What an archive of images - full of all the social changes seen through one person's eyes - better than a word written book.
do you print/display them? calendars? books?
@jorlam I have copied lots onto CD and DVD plus produce books for my wife and I, have done a book for both my children charting they life and gave them to them at their wedding receptions, to name but a few things:)
Fascinating way to compose your image Peter. Very clever way to express the tradition. Is the "new" item a remote shutter for the Sony? I just ordered an IR one for mine today and was surprised at the relatively low cost. I see the Sony E-mount f/2.8 70 - 200mm zoom is finally in stock. Bargain priced at $2600 USD!! You first!
@stray_shooter Thank you Ron, the timer/shutter release is for the Sony A7Rii inexpensive Chinese copy, as for the new lens that is on my wish list but could be they sometime funny the price over here with taxes is around £2500 Serling. OMG:)
