10 Apr yellow [14/52]

It’s funny how when you actually open your eyes and start looking for something, you’ll see it absolutely everywhere.

But even though I came across all sorts of yellows for the prompt this week, I had my mind set on creating a still life. Something full of sunshine and a whole lot of textures.

So I did.

I tried different bowls, different lemon ‘poses’, and generally had a bit of photography fun.

But the best fun always comes with the processing. Textures. It’s all about the textures :)

It also helps when your girlfriend owns a restaurant and you can randomly text her for some “lemons and a chippy white bowl, please” and she doesn’t even bother to ask why.

She gets me :)

I couldn’t resist using this fantastic Kim Klassen texture again. It so perfect for shots like this. Thanks Kim!

I have a few other shots of some flowers, and signs and whatnot. Like I said, yellows everywhere.

But the lemons stole the show.

and yes, I returned them :)

*textures from Kim Klassen, Tammy Lee Bradley and LesBrumes, with thanks.
