My friend Galangal
trying out different compositions and lighting
The photos above are of a piece of galangal (similar to ginger) which I found in the supermarket and thought would make an interesting photo for still life.
The top photo was taken using black background and single light source, where as the bottom photo was taken using a white background and natural daylight and the object is surrounded by black eye beans and curry leaves - the perfect dish!

practice shots
more practice shots at home - slightly under-exposed with the lighting not quite right
The lighting is better in this photograph - making the fruit look more tempting
water droplets
Water droplets catching the light and dropping - used faster shutter speed to capture this, lighting still needed adjusting but its so difficult doing everything single handedly

first studio shoot
First studio shoot - personal things that belong to me and say something about me, probably meaningless to anyone else.
I used a black background but used a blue scarf (dupatta) draped in the background to create more colour in the photo and my anklets on a pair of sandals. I used a single light to emphasise the anklets.
In this shot a second light was used to light up the scarf from behind, slightly more difficult to work with as the fabric was net.
