How very creative and unique! Guess it's a fate many papers will face, being underwater! lol! Well focused and natural lighting, well composed, seen and executed!

    Thank you very much! I like your point of view. Being under water is probably a fate not only newspapers will face.

It is always nice to see alternate approaches. The odd objects really speak here.In my opinion this is a still life with a difference. Interesting concept. Good effort!

I think this would qualify as a still life. By definition you did arrange the paper on the shells so I think it works. I like the idea of the lonely torn forgotten piece of paper left to nature. Not entirely sure about your filters but overall good work.

The sand would of been a better choice. sometimes we artists think too much and not keep it simple. Love the concept and execution. Try another with the sand.

    Thank you very much for your kind review and your input. There is one problem with the sand. There is non on this beach. Its all stones, coral and shell.

Great set up of your finds on the beach. The New Yorker page was a great element to add. Wonderful clarity and fantastic editing skills

Technically my dear, this fits still life, it is an arrangement of still objects! You have some WAY nice shadow across the piece, it looks a bit like a "time capsule" I personally think that the magazinelooks so unusual against the shells that it really grabs the eye, making me realize what a good eye YOU have!

    Not everybody thinks so, because it is taken outdoors of objects I have not arranged myself. [I only put the New Yorker in.] Once again, all is relative, especially the personal view point.
