This is an open call to forum members to try their hand at
Still Life photography.
I’ll start with this entry, inspired this year by
Still Life paintings from exhibit at the Phoenix Art Museum entitled Master Pieces Replayed: Rembrandt and the Golden Age of Dutch Art.

Rich Abundance: A variation
Still life is “a work of art depicting mostly inanimate subject matter, typically commonplace objects which may be either natural (food, flowers, plants, rocks, or shells) or man-made (drinking glasses, books, vases, jewelry, coins, pipes, and so on) in an artificial setting. With origins in ancient times and most popular in Western art since the 17th century, still life paintings give the artist more leeway in the arrangement of design elements within a composition than do paintings of other types of subjects”.
