9 January - playing with marbles...

Horrible day today, blowing a gale and raining.
It was absolutely pointless washing & drying my hair this morning,
I'm a windswept wreck after battling home from the school run.
But I refuse to drive - come rain or shine I force myself
(and my poor little children) to walk to & from school! ;o)

They look like little planets. Useful prop though, I must get some for when my PAD is hard to get. Rose

They look like speckled bowling balls. Just need some pins to knock down now. Reminds me I have a glass jar full of them, just waiting for a photo op.

Excellent compo,choice of bw and light,well done!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PP

Guest		09-Jan-2007 17:45
LOL Wonderful imagination, Nicky All sorts of photo opps using marbles that I had never considered I was moving this image around on my screen trying differant crops by sliding the image off screen etc. I love the play of the light try placing them in a box and use a flashlight from differant angles, blow in a little smoke or use differant surfaces under the marbles. Try using a mirror in the back of the box. Wow... so many options in a mini studio setting.

Guest		09-Jan-2007 17:29
it's gorgeous.

Linda Alstead		09-Jan-2007 16:49
