9 Oct 25 Comment Thank you all for your kind words, comments and most of all suggestions! I have already given the candle sticks back after not being able to find taper candles for them (admittedly I only went to a couple of stores).
I am not going to retake this photo, but I am on a still life kick so you will probably see another still life next month.

9 Oct 25 Comment Randy, I am happy to year that you are out and about with your camera again! And what a great photo! I love how the flower is jumping off the screen. Beautiful colors and cropped nicely.

Thank you for your review of Affinity Photo! Please update us if you try their new release

9 Oct 25 Comment Linda, this is a striking photo.
IT has been over 15 years since I've been to NYC so I am recognizing nothing :)
I love how the lighting plays differently on each building. The small scale of the Shed adds interest against the taller buildings.

9 Oct 25 Comment Sabine, thank you for your thoughtful comments.
I was just capturing different topics - last months topic was summer, this month I am going for Halloween type vibes.

The skull is cheap plastic purchased at the dollar tree. However, I scored a nicer fake skull at a thrift shop today and will soon try again with the newer skull.
I agree with burnt out candle sticks but I didn't have any on hand and wanted to get started.

I definitively used a black and white filter on the b&w image.
For the color image I only added a vignette. I was playing a lot with lighting, having it come in harshly on one side.

9 Oct 25 Comment You have a good eye - nice find! Lovely shot - I love how the outer flower petals are light but toward the center of the flower the petals are more vibrant. Oct 7th
9 Oct 25 Comment Gorgeous! Looks like an inviting October day. I beautiful place to take a walk. Oct 7th
9 Oct 25 Comment I think this is very well done - it looks like it could out of a fairy tale! Oct 7th
9 Oct 25 Comment Beautiful photograph. It does show the magnificent space, the inlayed floor, the paintings on the walls and the even the ceiling as well as the sculpture in the center.
While it would have been great to have the empty room, having the other tourists in the room also helps to tell the story. It shows the respect and appreciation so many people have the library.
