light and nature

the last assignment of the
c&c photography workshop
suggests flowers, light and abstraction.
as it happens it's cherry blossom time at
the brooklyn botanic garden.

workshop: choose a color

this week's assignment
at c&c photography
was color.

workshop: still life in two parts

this week's photography workshop subject
over at c&c photography :still life.

i did the assignment twice -
once bright and colorful and once,
more to my liking,
muted and brooding.

first i bought a selection of mexican groceries:
poblanos and serranos, tomatillos. a few nopal cactus leaves.















then, yesterday after work i pulled little vases from my cabinets
and went out to what passes for a backyard
behind my apartment building...



(it's not in spring mode yet
but the rough surfaces were perfect
with the pottery.)















by the way, many of these pots are by my friend
the wonderful margaret wozniak
see more of her work here and here

hipstamatic: the grid

six lenses, eight "films"
this is my test strip.
not entirely 'readable' here
but the individual tests
take up SO much blog space.

hipstamatic: ina's 1969

not one of my faves.
the linen-like border doesn't
do anything for me.
