Ok. I had the brilliant idea of painting with light.

I tried.

I failed.

I went back to just using lights.

Did you know that it's useless to try to chimp in minimal editing?

It looked sooooo gorgeous on my camera screen! It looked rather plain on the computer.

Someday I'll start shooting tethered.

Oh wait. The battery in the laptop just exploded and completely warped and destroyed the laptop.

Ok. Back to chimping for tonight's challenge.

Did I mention that chimping doesn't work in minimal??

Thanks for the comments!

Interesting storytelling. Very interesting indeed.

Technically, i would prefer some more separation of the subjects from the background and a foreground that's does not draw the attention to itself (referring to the wooden floor/table/countertop). But that's just me.
