A very popular subject for still life photography is food. In fact, many people would consider food photography a genre of its own. And, I can see why.

Fresh Produce from Garden to Table
Looking for a photography subject? Not sure what to photograph? Do your kids and grandkids or pets run and hide when the camera comes out? Look no further than your own garden, the farmers' market, and yes, even the grocery store for fantastic photography subjects.

Disappearing into Still Life
The calm of feeling unattached to the sense of self while so absorbed in the work becomes a creator's persona. I am not aware of myself nor my surroundings when I am immersed in the frame I am laboring over. I mentally disappear into Still Life photography.

Tulips Galore | Don’t Mind the Mud
As I approached the fields upon fields of tulips, I was completely amazed. The landscape full of tulips seemed to go on forever; as far as I could see. Clearly these tulip fields had been well planned and certainly well cared for. But, the surprising thing to me was that they didn't appear to be commercial production. They appeared to be for the sole enjoyment of those who were fortunate enough to visit. Me being one of those lucky people!

Changing Seasons in Ashland
A few years ago in my pursuit of fall colored leaves, I passed through Ashland, OR. Fortunately, I decided to stop and spend the night there. And, I'm so glad I did! The fall color change was in full swing in Ashland, and especially in Lithia Park.
