tabletop photos again? who can help it? it seems to be a real trend on the flickr and around the blogs... I'm getting more and more into cooking, going to the local organic market, growing herbs, picnics and photographing our meals. Celery soup, amazing mixed grains bread from "sugardough" down the street, a leftover glass of red from the previous night...
For the guys and gals...have you ever found a fragrance/cologne that becomes your "brand"? Many years ago that cologne for me was ESCADA. For some reason that is no longer available even in the knockoff versions which were not that good. When I was in Manhattan last year I came across the Robert Graham clothing store and ended up buying some great wardrobe for the models I have worked with. BUT, I also found this new scent called FORTITUDE - Robert Graham Fortitude. The art of magnetism and sensuality for those with a strong spirited and adventurous swagger like the legendary stamina of the horned ram whose head graces the artful decanter top. Robert Graham Fortitude evokes a daring sense of self and true grit. Deep, rich and almost mystical born of alchemy and the exotic.
An overly sensual top note of tobacco absolute with secondary notes of patchouli and tonka bean are melded to perfection for this distinctive blend.
********************I really never achieve any creative satisfaction from my tabletop photography efforts to date...but, like everything else, I keep trying and learning along the way. I would rate this shot maybe a 5 out of 10 scale. Equipement used - Godox VSA-36K GOBO Spotlight Kit, Smallrig RC-220B for the overhead with cone diffuser, Smallrig RC 120D for the GOBO spotlight, Sony A7RIV with both 135mm and 50mm.
Hermione retreats indoors for safety's sake. It's a big, wide-open world out there for a posh city cat. The map table is more her style.
Act of boredom or flash of creativity? I'm never sure. In the end it is a macro scrap of the red onion that contributed to my lunch.
