A search for freedom

Still life

Left behind

 

Homage to William Carlos Williams’ ‘Red Wheelbarrow’!

Red Wheelbarrow

‘so much depends
upon

a red wheel
barrow

glazed with rain
water

beside the white
chickens’

Still life – a bottle of red …. and a quiet celebration!

Today is the fifth anniversary of this site.  Cheers everyone!

The cracked glass (1)

Today’s post and the two following offer three interpretations of the same object  –  a cracked drinking glass

In this image the glass is presented as a straight still life photo.

 

‘How did it get so late so soon?’ (Dr Seuss)

 

 

There are few ‘finds’ more evocative of the past than a once-much-loved watch nestled away at the bottom of a sock drawer.  The moment in time may be frozen but associated memories begin to flow freely.

 

Clips and pins

I feel this abstract image has the qualities of a woodblock print  but it began life as a photo of my wife’s pin box!

Still life with a soup can

A soup can is a familiar object  –  perhaps too familiar!  Certainly when experimenting with the images below I became aware of features I had not previously given thought to.  In addition, the circles in various forms and perspectives provided an interesting compositional element.  Colour v black and white?  I’m still undecided   –  but here are four different interpretations.

Still life with dead bones

In truth, they are eroded shells rather than bones but I prefer this title!
