Fresh Garlic

Another light painting from me.
I wanted so badly to do an outdoor shot for this challenge
but either the weather or my health didn't cooperate.

Last night it was a beautiful night
but I was so exhausted I just didn't have the energy.

I can't take credit for the subject matter:
I got the idea from a book I have where there's a shot
similar to this with the garlic and the aged newspaper
shot in window light. I've always loved the shot
and wanted to do something similar.
I thought it might be perfect for PWL.

Set this up in my kitchen.
Found this old newspaper "photo" on the net
and printed it out on parchment paper.
Then crinkled it up to make it appear older.

Fantastic lighting, textures and color-scheme! It doesn't look like it's painted with light - it looks so much like sunshine through a window!

Great composition. Its an image from a cookbook. One of those real heavy ones that cost an arm and a leg.
