Header Challenge:fruit

July 10, 2013

Today's challenge is fruit.  Imac picked the theme for this week. Check out my  pals for their interpretations on this theme: Fishing  Guy, Katney, Imac and Lew.

The files have been jam-packed and I need to clear out space for new photos.  In addition, I was honored to have been asked to photograph a wedding this weekend, so I will need abundant space for the hundreds of pictures I plan to shoot.  Besides the shots I will take myself, I have acquired the services of a talented friend to be my 2nd photographer.  That of course means lots more pictures.  So right now the archives are tucked away in an external hard drive.  Consequently, I will keep things simple with this one photo for the header.

I just threw together what we had on hand.  The header shot is the choice I was happiest with, as I did some experimentation last week.  For some reason, I really, really wanted to include the avocado in the shot of fruit.  It was quite black!  After a few different ideas, I think I came up with a way to get some of that bumpy texture to show up on the avocado.

Please keep me in your prayers this weekend.  I would love to be able to capture well the most essential images for the bride and groom this weekend, but we will be on a very tight schedule, and I will need to work super-efficiently.  That's not the way I usually do things.  I normally take my sweet o'l time, and the good stuff does not usually happen in the first couple of takes.
