Compositionally Challenged: Week 18 Flatlay Photography aka Knolling
The idea was to make a flower, but it looks more like a tree. The bottom is sea weed. The stem is a wooden board + shadow (left) and a cinnamon stick (right).
Mainly aniseed and chili flakes. I created it on a wooden board and then I decided I didn't like the board. So I got rid of it the best I could in post-processing. I used Lightroom and Photoshop. I wanted to make the background blue, like sky, but that is a bit too advanced for me. I tried and failed.

2022_CLondon52w25: Check-In
From the C.London website: "We’re coming up on the middle of the year. How has it been so far? Have you been able to keep up? If so, color me impressed! I know just how difficult this challenge can be and how easy it is to let the weeks slip by.
For you, the ones who are all caught up, your prompt this week is to go back and find your one favorite and your one least favorite images from the challenge so far. Break down what it is that you like about the favorite, and what challenges you faced with the least favorite. Try and be extra critical, and if you’re open to it, share them on our subreddit, discord, flickr discussion board, or facebook group and ask for feedback from your peers. You now have the option of recreating the least favorite with your critical eye in mind. While you may not be able to recreate it exactly, use it as an inspirational jumping off point and focus on what you’d like to improve about it."
Favorite: Does He Not See Me? [www.jeffmarcowitz.photography/Collections/CLondon-52/i-v8...]
I loved the humor & spontaneity of this scene as I watched it unfold. Was perfect for Martin Parr week and represents the "slices of life" scenes I enjoy capturing.
Least Favorite: Tomahawk [www.jeffmarcowitz.photography/Collections/CLondon-52/i-xp...]
While this photo responded to the prompt "Commitment", the composition & lighting do not enhance the pork chop. Actually, it's kinda gross. The two biggest challenges were available lighting while dining outside at night and a 40mm focal length.
This week's photo utilizes the same focal length, better lighting, flatlay composition and the same 40mm focal length to convey a more appetizing scene of my wife's fantastic salad creation.
