It’s been a while since I did some serious light painting in the studio, with my shoulder it was a little too difficult. But it is feeling really good now and I felt like spending some time with these apples (which I was going to make apple pies with), before I cut them up. I…

There is nothing is as bright and cheerful as gerberas, is there? Possibly Daisies or Cosmos, but I cannot get either of them at the moment. But I did recently pick up these bright orange ones! So I spent some time playing with them in the studio… Just popped them on my chippy table in…

Diamonds are a girl’s best friend…right? That fabulous song from Marilyn Monroe in the movie Gentlemen prefer Blondes. With the red background and hot pink dress, dripping with diamonds.
