Better Late Than Never...right?

Recently all my nephew will talk about has been volcanoes, and last night while on Stumbleupon the first site it sends me too is this: 


Makes me wish I could see an actual volcano eruption, from a safe distance.

On to the next assignment!

http://www.thephotoargus.com/inspiration/35-superb-examples-of-still-life-photography/

We are just about to start assignment #2, Studio Still Life, and assignment #1 is sort of close to being done. And by that I mean we have 2 or 3 of the 7 photos done. Still life should be an interesting time, having complete control of the entire shoot will be a nice change. I also have to put together a portfolio of my art so that may lead into a two birds, one big ol' rock type situation.

Today I Googled 'still like photography' and found a link to "35 Superb Examples of Still Life Photography", and they are rather excellent. A few are pretty typical, they show a firm understanding of photography and lighting techniques but they lack creativity quite a bit.
