I've been lurking around here for a few weeks now and thought now was a good time to jump in and get my feet wet. I've never really done any sort of still life photos like this, I have spent the while learning as much as I can about portrait photography... but people see me with a camera and run now, so I've got to practice on something . Thanks Fred for this great opportunity to get out and try things we normally wouldn't. Today's photoshoot didn't involve any people but it cost my girlfriend a loss to her flower bed.
