Still Life?

 I follow an account on Instagram of a photographer who moved from New York to France, she enjoys taking still life photography of beautiful flowers, fruits and bugs she finds in her town. She shares the entire process of the photograph on her Instagram story. I enjoy her stories so much and I dream of living such a beautiful experience in my life.  

Feeling inspired by this account, I decided I would give still life photography a shot. I did some research on Pinterest, spotted some good props at Trader Joe's and scouted my moms house for the rest. I'm not 100% happy with the results, but I do like the tones I used. I liked the variety of fruits and vegetables I used.  I didn't have a rustic old looking back drop so I used the outside of my house as a backdrop, which I really really didn't like.  I also used a small table and realized it was too small. The glass container is from my father's collection. I don't know the contents because it has not been consumed since he passed away. 

I definitely need to work on my photography skills and will give still life photography a second chance. I need to be 100% satisfied, so stay tuned.  

Update

My website is relatively new and perhaps I don't have any regular visitors but I wanted to provide an update. My last post was on the 10th of February, one would wonder is she done blogging? Nope, I'm still here and very much interested in blogging. So where have I been? I wish I can say I've been traveling and working on my blog but nope that's not the case. I've just been very busy, busy with work, busy with house stuff and just plain busy! Ugh and the worst thing is, it's only going to get worse.

The month of March is extremely busy at work. I will be working long days and weekends. So my blogging will be very limited for the next 30 days.  Once I'm done with March I plan to be back with all sorts of cool things. I hope you stay tuned.
