"Insufficient"
prompt "Your worst nightmare"

Is it simply about rejection, or is it that even validation might not satisfy? When you're addicted to external approval, success may feel as hollow as failure. Maybe the acceptances are discarded as much as the rejections? The nightmare is the endless seeking itself.

It's good to check motivations, and put motivations in check. Is this the nightmare, or is the risk of this the nightmare?

"Lemon Slice"


I didn't realize I could spend so much time taking an image of a slice of lemon and then more time editing it. I really wanted to capture the cross-section of wedges, with the lines of the wedges clear and bringing you into the photo.

“Shadow Between”
If we look at a vase of roses, we see the vase, we see the roses, but do we pay much attention to what's in between? Does it fade into a shadow?

Unintentional, but I feel like I have a Prosopagnosia Metaphor here. With Prosopagnosia, I can see features of a face I'm looking at. I may know a person - body, context, setting, voice, clothes, posture, but sometimes the facial recognition part of the brain has problems bridging the two.

This image is a composite of the shadow (taken at a slight angle) and the roses straight on.

“Time!”

Photographing Jewelry has interesting challenges, for example, how do you photograph a very reflective surface without reflecting the entire studio, but conveying that it is reflective? How do you photograph a glass watch face? Even details like "10 past 2" for symmetry. In this case, also picking a date with full moon.

“The Selvage of Scottish Tradition”

The fringe on a kilt's apron (front flap) is one of the few places where the raw edge of the fabric is intentionally displayed as a "signature" of the quality of the skill of the weaver maintaining consistent tension and clean thread termination.

"Gustav Holst - Mars" (52 Frames Soundtrack)

This weeks prompt is Soundtrack with extra challenge of "An Instrumental Piece". Not sure if anyone will get it, but I decided to go chess again and pair with Gustav Holst's "Mars" - if you feel the association, give me a shout out.

"The Queen's Soliloquy"
The chess battle pauses for a moment as the spotlight moves to the queen... what will her next move be?

I was going to do product photography, but pivoted last minute for a few different reasons. As I looked around my studio, the chess set called out to me. The light is produced by my Westcott spotlight - no gobo, but angled the knife blades to get a triangular light. I then experimented with different angles and decided on this one.

Ever wonder what goes on behind the scenes? This is a before & after of the "In memory of a rose" image I created this week. This single image was over 3 hours of work - a significant amount of time to get the lighting how I wanted it, and also editing.

When hiring a photographer, this is the care and attention you want to see.

"In memory of a rose"
This weeks prompt is "out of place". I had originally considered something fun until the events of the week unfolded. America is a country that celebrates freedom of speech, and on this day, someone decided to remove that right through assassination.
