I'm so happy and excited that Sally of The Studio Sublime is doing Focus on Life again this year. I was sidetracked last year for various reasons, but I'm looking forward to getting back behind the camera.
We're focusing on minimalism this month and our first assignment was to take a photograph of a single subject. As I thought about what to photograph, I knew I wanted the subject to be pretty minimalist too. But what would that be? Everything I thought of was quite detailed. And then I opened the silverware drawer and spotted the sugar spoon. I found my subject!

ReplyDeleteA great shot! And a very pretty spoon.
ReplyDeleteYour photographs are splendid indeed! And, it's a very pretty spoon, too.
ReplyDeleteI love the way you made the spoon "float" on the white background. High five on the lighting!
ReplyDeleteAnnette, I love your photos. The monochrome gray hues and the simplicity of the subject truly creates a minimalistic and yet elegant picture. Love the graceful design of the spoon, looks very Art Nuevo to me.
ReplyDeleteOh wow, that second photo does really make those dancing lines of the spoon come to life. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful photos!!
ReplyDeleteThis is an amazing photo, the lines are so pure!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. So sharp and clear
ReplyDeleteI Love your Spoons! They really do seem to float on the page. I also really love your list of things you are thankful for. Great idea!

Stunning photos of a very pretty subject!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year :)
I have a berry spoon that looks a lot like that (only the handle is all 'scrolly' too) I'm thinking my berry spoon is a whole lot bigger! Welcome back! Just found this comment lost ... I got windows 8 with my new computer and don't have a clue where things are now!
ReplyDeleteYou've done a fantastic job of making a simple tea spoon be beautiful! Great photos!
ReplyDeleteGood for you for joining again!!
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid I had such good intentions last year but never made it very far.
Great shots!
What a great image to start us off on a year of sweetness! Beautiful photos!
ReplyDeleteFantastic shot Annette! I love how simple the spoon is, but still adds a lot of texture to your shot.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year,
Valerie
