Still Life, Mason Jars

ISO: 200  f/4.0  SS: 1/250

While this picture wasn't actually hard to take at all, I had issues setting it up because I DON'T KNOW HOW TO TAKE STILL LIFE PHOTOS! I am a photojournalist. That's it. I take photos of people, doing what they do. That's what I enjoy. So this was REALLY hard for me to just come up with a concept.

It started out as different seasons in a jar, but none of those turned out well at all.
I just kept telling myself "Foreground, middle ground, background." But I couldn't figure out how to do that either. This was pretty much the closest I got. I don't have a whole lot against this photo, but it's definitely not the black and white glass either.  :c Grrrr.

The editing was difficult too. Getting the jar to contrast the background apparently didn't work so well. The background was actually white at the beginning, but now it's purple. Weird.
EITHERWAY, it turned out okay. I think I should rework this photo again sometime.
