Light wielding

looked a bit like painting with light in the thumbnail

I love the reflection here and you underneath. Good work with composition!

incredible

Glass tables, big plants, shiny fruit, and lamps from Ikea make great photoshoots.

Who says you can't pull of the sexy sultry look???? You look like a right little minx in this one Nat. I'm really liking the colours in these fruit and lamp shots , I also love the light coming off your face and again the reflection in the table. Thanks for the email xx

This is cool. And there was me cursing my Ikea lamp because it seems to attract flying ants at the moment. As if the 40 odd degrees outside is not hot enough for them.

MegElizabeth_ says:

i'm not sure if this is on in England... but i am pathetically watching "The View" right now, and yes, i am also reminded of how badly i need a job.

you and le chat seem to use the "diffuse glow" filter a lot, or something tot aht effect, i've noticed. is this to exentuate the lighting that you've chosen? just wondering.

i love the confusing reflections in this.. all the geometry is very neat. :)

Alyciaa says:

In the thumbnail, it looks a lot like an edited, like, collage swirly thing, and I was surprised to see a real photograph. It's really nice though. And it's really good on black, normally that doesn't make much of a difference, but I like it much better on black. Great work.

@ meg - not sure about Le chat, but i do use that tool. Jobhunting is going on ad nauseum today in between Flickr...;-)

@ cotterik - not hdr as such, i haven't tried that yet.

thanks so much everyone... i'm so glad you like the pic, and kind of proves that nudity isn't the only aspect that attracts views and faves and comments. It's brilliant to prove that!
