A Still Life--continued...

I played around with some still life compositions this weekend...I have a lot of cool old stuff

(Greg would use slightly different words to describe my beloved collection of things!) 

And I found that arranging objects in a pleasing manner is not as easy as it looks--its kind of hard, actually!

 For me at least...it took a lot of time trying to figure out what things should go together...

how they should go together...

I like more of a casual, less formal set up for most things
and its hard to be deliberate and accidental at the same time...
I wanted things to go together, but I wanted to create a sort of visual tension...
anyway, here is the collection of images I came up...I think I will get better with more practice.

And more things!!  : )
