Shells, Sea & Soap

Having a few days off, for the Easter Holiday, gives me a chance to spend a bit more time than I usually have in setting up a shot. This one took all morning to get right, not to mention the planning (which I've been contemplating for a few weeks). Wanted to shoot more of an 'interior decor' sort of image, and I really wanted to have a crack at shooting with a mirror in frame — they are a massive pain to control what's reflected — you're having to work with the composition in the foreground, it's reflection, and then controlling the reflection in the background. I was planning a completely cream/brown palette but succumbed, at the last minute, and added some miniature daffodils and the blue bottle for a little punch and lift. A very subtle vintage effect has been applied in the ever-trusty Snapseed. #handmadesoap #soap #naturalsoap #bathroom #mirror #reflection #seasalt #seavitamins #shells #vintage #interiordecor #soapporn #snapseed #oxfordshire #uk #most_deserving #photowall #all_shots #uk_photooftheday #icatching #bd #markmakingdesign #soft_tones #dofaddicts #bokeh #candlelight #still_life #stilllife #niftyfifty
