Spring in a Bottle

#MacroMondays

#InABottle

 

My last "finished already on Friday" MM photo was a singularity, I assume. Because here I am back with my usual last-minute routine. My "In a Bottle" image is neither particularly creative nor is it an all-new setup. In fact, it is pretty similar to the setup of my image for "Stacked" (which you can find in the first comment if you like). I simply couldn't think of anything very original for the theme, but I knew I wanted to use a tiny (2 cm / 0,78 inches high) perfume sample bottle that must be decades old. The fragrance is "Le Dix" by Balenciaga, and it's not exactly my favourite fragrance (I prefer fresh, grassy, airy fragrances), but the bottle itself is too cute and special – so it's a keeper. You've already seen the perfume bottle's cap as "mushroom" in April 2019's "Bottle Cap" theme (please check the first comment as well).

 

So here's my little spring bouquet with a super simple setup: perfume sample bottle with (already slightly shrivelled, but that adds texture) random berries taken from the weekend bouquet bought at our local weekly market, placed on a glossy black tile, gold-coated cardboard placed behind the small scene, yellow light from the left, white light from the right, that's it. Processed in Analog and Color Efex.

 

HMM, Everyone! (I'll catch up with you tonight!)
