In life everything has a start. It is the moment when the idea is born, the moment when we first think about it. The shorter the time between the idea and the realization of the idea is the higher is the chance that it will be actually done.
An other very positive side of ideas besides that many time they lead to real actions is that many times they are connected to something new what we haven`t done yet. We have to go and explore, think about options, and try new things. When we admit that there is still so much we do not know yet, but realize the will in us to learn the whole process of turning ideas to reality can be something very joyful and positive.
Spending time on learning and practicing something we love is not a time wasted if we know the goal we want to reach and even unsuccessful attempts to reach it are a successful step. Because we use our time to get closer to something what is important for us, so we use our time well.

Still life photography has been a new field to me, and I do not remember exactly how this idea came that i would like to try still life photos, but now I realized that this field of photography as well hides in itself endless creative opportunities. From thinking about colors, shapes and composition to adding even symbolic messages to pictures this field is a real creative paradise.
At the weekend I tried some flower shots and something called "dramatic still art". It was fun to go to the shop and browse fruits one by one trying to find the one with the best color and the perfect shape- it gave a new dimension to the usual food shopping.
These and the one photo above were my favorite shots:

I know that in photography only the end result matters, but since I am learning to understand the light better, and so might some of you too, I would like to add that the photos above are unedited, original images. The color world is the result of the chosen light source and camera settings, not afterprocess.
Monika these are some fantastic photographs!! Great job :) you're a natural.
ReplyDeleteThanks Keith :)!! It was a great weekend and i also enjoyed the "random preparation" ( fruit shopping etc.) for this photo shoot.
