Flickr Lounge: books
I'm practicing still-life photography, and for this session I decided to use items that are old or look like they could be old. The selection (not everything appears in any one photo): a table that is only two years old, chairs that are probably a few decades old, a perfume bottle and a pill bottle that were given to me as gifts several years ago, pens that belong to my husband but that he contributed to the photo shoot when I saw items I had laid out on the table and guessed I was taking photos, Indian head pennies and buffalo nickels, a jasper necklace I made, a chain necklace with decorative keys that I made, roses that I dried, and some books. The books: two leather journals that I bought this year because I like how they look; the heart one is for myself and the other is for my husband (though he doesn't know it yet--it was put away out of sight when he saw my props), and two old Bibles. A couple of photos also include the base of a candleholder.
