I have been having a play around with some props today while the sun streamed through my lounge window. I had three apples which I hadn’t got around to cooking, so I decided to be creative.
It took a certain amount of fiddling around to get the items positioned in order to make the most of the light, but I was reasonably pleased…. the embossed word on the old tin box worked well, and I love that old Agfa Isolette.
Another one will be posted tomorrow!

You’re so good at this, Sue. It gives me great pleasure to see what you come up with.

Thank you so much, Janet!
Beautiful! And yes I love that camera 😍
Thank you! Glad you like this
Another triumph. Is the camera still functional? And will the apples be stewed? The background is great too.
I remember seeing a 17th (?) century painting of less than perfect apples and being delighted with the reality of them.
Questions, questions! The camera is no longer functional, the apples will not be stewed, too much else to do, and what else was there? 😀 Oh yes, the imperfection of the apples…that’s what appealed. As you say, with dimples and blotches, you know they’re real!
You post. You invite questions!! Get used to it. Or order me not to ask. I won’t be happy though!
Teehee! Of course I want you to ask questions, be engaged! I’m not complaining at all 😀😀
Looks so French, lovely 🙂
Thank you! And I have given a nod to the French, with the case from the Margaux!
Its a shame as we missed the sunflowers, they are all dried out in the fields now and I did think you would be photographing them like that 🙂
Perhaps!!
🙂
That’s lovely Sue. How about chopping one of the apples in half? If you haven’t eaten them by now…
Too late!
I agree with Janet. Viewing on my phone so less than ideal. I’ll come back tomorrow xx
Thank you, Jo!
love the old camera
Isn’t it great!
🙂
Love the simplicity of the items but there is a complexity in the setting. Great photo!
Many thanks! I had some fun with this
So lovely, Sue.
Thank you, Sylvia!
I really like this shot Sue. The composition is great, and I find myself wanting to create a story around these disparate items. 🙂
Very pleased you enjoyed this, Su, and do write those stories!
🙂
And I did 🙂 🙂 Happy Wednesday, Sue!
And Happy Wednesday to you, Jo! Anything planned? I’m off for coffee with a friend this afternoon
Just back from t’ai chi and waiting to see what the weather does next. 🙂 🙂 Enjoy your chat!
