Fauxtique

Once again I had to figure out what to take a picture of because outside was not an option (it's overcast today). This is actually great because it is making me focus and be more creative. I like the outcome of this photo. It is just a 3 drawer storage unit that hangs in my bathroom, but I think it looks pretty nice in this photo.

I used the micro setting on my Nikon as well as my shoe-mounted flash. Without that flash, I wouldn't have been able to get this picture. The shoe-mounted flash allows me to direct the flash away from the subject so it is not washed out by the flash.

Spiral lights

This is a close up photo of one of the lamps in my house. I think the pink plastic circles against the spiral shaped bulb make for an interesting photo.

I find it a lot harder to find good subject matter inside my house than I do outside, but it was dark when I arrived home today. I may have to start taking my Nikon to work so I have a chance for a variety of shots; I just don't relish having to lug around the big bag in which I carry my Nikon and all its equipment.
