A still life I put together on the solarium window edge. Composed of dogwood seed pods, horse chesnut, acorns and maple seed and various leaves. I was really attracted to the colours and textures of the dogwood pods plus the fall leaves.

Love the textures, patterns, and colors, Bob. Similar to your last still life.

Nice job. And in living breathing color

Cheers,

Carol

I like seeing the textures too, Bob. On my monitor, there seems to be a cyan cast especially on the acorn heads...minor.

Great composition of nature objects from color, texture and focal range. A little nest of fall

This is really thought out well Bob and an excellent fall capture. Your larger version is very "artistic looking" and the colors very rich and vibrant. Unique and well done!

Love the arrangement Bob also the colors and textures. Great textures and these things are just fun to look at. There's a bright something or other midway up on the right side and a little shiny fleck of something else toward the lower right corner. Very small nits because I couldn't come up with any others. Beautiful work on this. Sort of a visual haiku.

A great fruity still life, Bob

. Love the superb lighting (some subtle glow in the frame) and the contrast and of course the textures

Hi Bob

I think you captured a very good 'country mood" here. The warm glow and colors. along with the superb detail. make this a very fine still life.
