Need a hand?

Suits and briefcases is what we have become, living our lives as if work was "ends" and not the means. Nature claims its tolls.

 

I barely got any sleep yesterday frustrated by the need to take a picture.. and then I realised I was turning pleasure into pain.

 

Today I got up, went to the garden and started drawing in my sketch book.. I think it came close to what I had in mind. Still wanted to make some elements more obvious.. like the book.. the title which is Troy.. and the plant stealing the shoe.. I had a banana somewhere there too but I got hungry whilst waiting for my friend so... thats gone!.. I also wanted to add elements of Wind, but due to the speed in which we had to take the photo I couldnt put these things into place..

 

We kinda had to take the actual photograph in a hurry as my friend had other commitments, so it was pretty much like 15 minutes.. next time.. next time..

 

Thanks to the help of my good friend Marlon, a man who walked all the way here with a suit and a heavy briefcase on a bank holiday summer day, we managed to pull it together! Thanks man

 

I still dont have good use of light.. I set up a strong "construction light" on the right side and tried to difuse it with an umbrella.. still, much more to be learnt..
