Photo Assignment - A Striking Still Life
Can you make the ordinary seem extraordinary?
Challenge yourself, get creative and test your photography skills using almost anything you have laying around the house to create A Striking Still Life.
A still life is an artfully arranged (posed) collection of inanimate objects that set a scene. The still life photographer controls all the elements -- subject material, lighting, depth of focus, and the fore-, middle-, and background to create the image. Food is a classic subject (e.g., a bowl of fruit on a sideboard) but still life images can be created from any inanimate grouping. Tools, toys, flowers and paper have been used to great effect. A cigar in a crystal ashtray might be a still life, but if you add a book, inverted reading glasses, and a crystal tumbler of spirits, the scene suggests you are relaxing with a good book. A still life is a scene.
