A Splash of Colour

A desperation for colour seeps in about this time of year... 

I'm tired of the white and dirty snow,

leafless gray trees,

and sunless sky. 

So a little colour in monochromatic March: 

A spring bouquet.

Liquid Lumination

So I got out the glasses, water, the food colouring, and some lighting... To some, this may not be a recipe for artistic creativity, but the more I played around with these items, the more excited I got. The light reflecting in the coloured water, playing with the curves in the glasses; the possibilities were endless.

For me, these moments are what photography is all about: Losing myself in the moment, in the light and the colours, finding visual poetry in the ordinary.

Note to Self

It is not productive cooking practice to become mesmerized by the shape and colour of a red pepper, thereby forgetting about the food that is on the stove.
