Playing with objects, lighting, and an old passion.

I don't know. I think my photographic interest is in the natural world.

1. I find solitary objects

very difficult to do. I think you did a good job with these. (Les Paul?) I like the second one the best because the perspective is interesting.

I do have a LP. The other pictures are a Strat.
I couldn't get ginned up about doing it. Spent a lot of time playing with lighting from using the shop lights to using a flashlight and all kind of diffusion. Nothing seemed to ring my bell.
I guess my focus is going to be the natural world.

3. you and me!

I took up photography to combine it with being outside. I would use it for cityscapes if I lived in that kind of neighborhood I guess, but I much prefer nature. But indoor still life? Indoor portraits? Not for me. And my preference is for capturing a moment in time, something that within a second or a few minutes will be gone. So, birds are a really good subject for that, but so are people, as long as they are moving.
