I actually love doing photo set ups and probably would do well as a stylist. I love finding things (like complimentary backgrounds, props, etc.) and then arranging them. I sometimes go around in stores and do that…and wait to get yelled at, although that has never happened. So far, anyway…. 
We are finally having some rain here in Northern Arizona. I say “Yay” to that, not because I like rain so much but because it is much needed. And besides, one of the reasons that I moved up here from the desert was because of the varied climate. The puppy could do without the rain though….he seems to rather go out in dry weather. But I myself am hoping for a bit of snow although I don’t think it will get cold enough for that.

Excellent still!
What a great still-life! That background is perfect – it really compliments the colors of the fruit.
Thank you both…I find shooting (and setting up) these types of still-lifes to be fun. Plus, it gives you something to shoot when it’s not such a nice day out.
