Patti from Pilot Fish creates this week’s Lens-Artist Challenge. “In this challenge, we’re exploring different types of still life images, not only the traditional “created” arrangement, but also “found” still life scenes–which you might discover in store windows, in a garden or museum, or just about anywhere.”
Benches and their surroundings





Hats in still-life

The answer they gave is John F. Kennedy.


Antique kitchen settings






Food
I love to go to farmer’s markets. I admire store-front displays. Sometimes I will arrange the food for a photograph.













Stores



Parts of sculptures



These are some still-life settings that I created.




As you can tell, I love to use my camera to focus on things around me. Luckily, I use my left eye to focus. The left eye still just has dry macular degeneration. My right eye has wet macular degeneration and all is a swirly blur. Till next time, enjoy these still-life images and let me know which one catches your eye!
All were great Marlene, I especially liked the eggs and the tarnished flatware.

I just love your flair for photography Marlene. The smiles put a smile on my face. I loved the food and the colorful candy, but the hats were fantastic. You always have such a nice selection.

You have the eyes for photography. Definitely, the farmers market is a great place to photograph. I was watching Halston on Netflix and it mentioned the death of hats.

What a wonderful collection, Marlene! So creative and diverse. As others have noted…the painted egg and the hats are wonderful. I love the side lighting on the teapot, too. You really have a talent for still life!
