Every year it's the same... I come up with a reading theme for the summer,
read about five to ten books, and then forget about the topic and forget

I had a go with colour film, using a medium format camera (Mamiya RB67). I walked around Hurst Wood in Burnley and captured several autumn shots. This was one of my favourites, I like the angle, your eye is drawn up the tree trunk and then around the warm tones leaves. I used a slow shutter speed of 1/8 of a second and F-Stop of 4.0. Iso was 100.
I produced this one in a studio environment. I used coloured gel's over the lighting to create stronger, warmer tone variation as opposed to the silver ring and clear crystal on a plain white background. I particularly liked the shadow, it appears to show movement and works well with the fiery tones that surround it. The facets look good, these stand out because I used a black gel, which shone up from underneath the table.
