Louis Posted September 17, 2021 Share #1 Posted September 17, 2021 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) Still Life has always been a very important and popular category of art through centuries. I always thought a "Still Life" gallery is very much missing in this website. So, if it's OK with you, let us start one here. Originally, I opened this topic in the CL gallery, and therefore, invited folks to post their CL still lives. But then, it was moved to “Other” gallery while several people who have other Leica cameras expressed their interest in “Still Life”. So, I changed the topic and now everyone can post shots with any Leica gear. CL + Nikkor 50mm, F:1.4 AI Welcome, dear visitor!

Louis Posted September 17, 2021 Author Share #5 Posted September 17, 2021 It would have been great if we had a gallery for this topic in the Photo Forum and I am surprised it doesn't exist! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post LocalHero1953 Posted September 17, 2021 Popular Post Share #6 Posted September 17, 2021 Great idea, @Louis. From time to time I try to take still lifes, but never to my own satisfaction, so I shall look for inspiration here. At one time I tried to come up with a statement of what makes a good still life; I came up with the notion that it needed something organic/natural, some craft object (e.g. made of wood) and something of metal or glass. But that didn't seem to work either! This isn't a still life assembled by me, but the light and combination of vegetables on display at a garden show seemed to work well.

Paul, thank you for participating. I have always been interested in Still Life and don't understand why they are not having this category in the Photo Forum. Actually, still life in BW could be very interesting. The subject is very vast and I am sure, object could be included as well. I am going to search my folders to see if I could find any!

LocalHero1953 Posted September 17, 2021 Share #11 Posted September 17, 2021 CL + 60TL I have lots of food photography that works as still life, but I have been just the photographer, not the creator.

LocalHero1953 Posted September 17, 2021 Share #12 Posted September 17, 2021 I didn't create this still life, but I did light and shoot it! I must now make some of my own still lifes (but not food!).

Kind regards, Louis I agree, perhaps the moderators can find somewhere for a still life photo thread - perhaps not just CL? Any Leica? 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
prk60091 Posted September 17, 2021 Share #14 Posted September 17, 2021 during the early days of the pandemic when we were in lockdown...
