STUDIO STILLS – BLACK & WHITE SUNDAY

BLACK & WHITE SUNDAY: STILL LIFE – STUDIO SHOTS


Rubber ducks. Today, January 13th, was National Rubber Ducky Day, so I felt obliged to take some pictures of my rubber ducky collection. This is the Groucho Celebriduck with a background of the Loon Celebriduck.

  4. 🙂 i must remember to observe the Rubber Ducky Day next year 😀 This is so charming and unexpected. Thank you for the wonderful surprise and for your candles that are not a surprise but nevertheless a gorgeous classic. xx

    • Yes. I have done those candles in color, but they were much more fun in black and white. On the other hand, I felt sure not many people would be taking romantic pictures of rubber duckies 😀 And I had to do them in black and white. I took the pictures under incandescent light and they were glowing hot orange … which, it turned out, made excellent black and white pictures, but really ugly color photos.

    • I was trying to find a setting that let me see more of the glass jars, but if I gave them that much light, then I started to see a whole background i didn’t like. Ah the perils of black and white balance!
