Thanks Annie

I have been a bit uninspired lately. So last night I went to a bookstore and sat down with Annie Leibovitz's big new book: A Photographer's Life. I came home lifted, saw these dried chillies and made this. It was a good reminder that it is important to look at physical images and not just pixels on a screen all the time.

Wonderfully creative and love the bright red of the peppers against the much paler colors in the picture.

A hot self-portrait. I like the color contrast and the off-center composition. "V"

LOL, certainly a hot-shot, Bill!! Such expressive eyes, and I love the pale background contrasting with the reddy orange of the chillies...cool (or, maybe not :o)) V
Nancy Good04-Dec-2008 17:05
LOVE this!! I tend to avoid SPs, mainly due to the "inspiration" failing ... you are truly inspiring me to step up to the SP plate! Well done. BV
