I was reminded that one should not to play with food 😀 , LOL, so I took the advice and instead I did arrangements with fruit.
Granny Smith and Golden Delicious plus Oranges. Shadow and light. Bright Colors
These are such a contrast to the snow floating behind my window. Enough of white already, it is lovely when it first arrives, this time of the year not so much.

A good distraction from the snow
What a range of greens. A good study.
Thank you Ruth, as I haven’t done lots of still lifes, this fun 🙂
I consider apples food, Ritva, but I’ll excuse this continued playing with food because the results are so lovely. 🙂

Janet, I appreciate it 😀
Interesting to see how lighting makes a difference.
Frank it makes all the difference in my opinion. with no shadows you have a dull picture.
😊
Lovely pictures of fruit, Rita. I struggle taking still life pictures because arranging things artistically is difficult for me. I admire your ability to do that. 🙂
Marsha, thank you, that is so kindly said. I take lots of variations, look at them through the lens and see how the work on the frame. I practise 🙂
That is going to be my next area of photography that I work on. Lucky for me, my husband has an eye for it when I don’t. I have to go about ar from the wrong side of my brain, but I can do that. It just takes longer. 🙂
Marsha, he completes you and your artistic journey 🙂
Yes, he does, Ritva. It’s really great when it works that way, isn’t it?
yes it is, sign of a great partnership
