I am really bad in this, writing in this blog regularly :)) Actually I some of the reason is that I don't have an inspiration for my still life images any more. No ideas at all. So for now I will bore you with some simple shot.
Light is coming from the window in my bedroom. I shot those images for The shutter divas group theme for this week - tea cup love. Not sure that I will post all of them to Flickr.

Still Life with Seashells

I was invited to participate in the competition "Still life with seashells". Is is a digital photo competition on some Russian site, no awards, just challenge. I took several images, and ended up with picture in black and white. This image was one of the few options, but I did upload it on Flickr. And it was chosen as icon of the Day in the group "The World Through My Eyes" http://twtme-icon-of-the-day-winners.blogspot.com/2010/12/still-life-with-seashells.html Thank you very much, it has made my day :))

Birthday

When people are asking me how old I am, I always want to answer 18. That is how I feel, I am still not sure about everything I do, like a girl, without experience. But actually I am 37 years old today. This number scares me :))

Changing season


I have taken this image yesterday. Just had this idea of winter coming, my birthday is close and then New Year. I have added some leaves on the background in Photoshop, usually I never combine still life with photo manipulion, but I wanted to break the rule this time.

White background





Most of my still life are photographed on the dark background. Usually it is grey or green paper. Dark background makes them look more like Dutch paintings and I like that :)) But on this weekend I have decided to try something different just for fun. White paper as a background for light and soft feeling.

My Dreams























I always wanted to try some photo manipulation in Photoshop. So I finally made some collages from my own images that I have taken during my vacations. I have a really big "stock" in my computer. It has opened my imagination.






Catching up





I am posting my latest creations. Autumn is my favorite season, so as you can see, my latest work are in autumn colors.
