This week, the photo challenge was to do a still life in the style of some Dutch masters. It’s the first challenge that I just haven’t really been bothered much with. It might be because I have so much else going on at the moment, but more likely, I just don’t care about still life (thankfully I missed the HDR week).

One of the styles is Ontbijtjes (“little breakfast”). So I thought I’d get a little breakfast and shoot it in the style. So here’s a little bit of Weet-bix, with some of Melissa’s little fruit Weet-bix hanging around. I put it on a nice serving dish we have, and made Melissa light it with a torch. The plate picked up some nice reflections.
