Experiment













I've been experimenting with arranging flowers lately, mostly just finding different containers to use as vases. I photograph them to remember my ideas, but then I decided to experiment with different lighting as well. This photo was taken late at night in my dark dorm room, using only the light from street lamps outside. It had a longer exposure than usual and I like the way it turned out as a warm shadowy image. Not every photograph needs to have natural or crisp lighting. I enjoy seeing different temperatures and tones that come from more difficult settings to photograph.

  1. I can't remember where I saw this...but someone was using old fancy tea cups as pots for small plants. It was really cute.

    It would be nice to see a little bit of reflected light on the front of the kettle. Just to show the viewer some more detail.
