As most men do, I also hate shopping.

Nice one, similar to the bread one and just as good. Not so sure about decaf tea though.....

A minor niggle, but what's the white thing between the the tin and your left hand?

Great shot! Very well done! I like it a lot.

I would say the white thing is the handle of the bag?

Great fun, but where's the beer?

That makes sense. It's a great shot!

What lens were you using?

Yes it is indeed the handle of the carrier bag.

Great one! You have a good imagination for these! But as someone said, no beer?

Best wishes, Kris.

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

A wonderfully original shot and perfectly executed. There must be a market for this type of thing!
Best wishes,

Great idea.

Reminds me of a few years ago in a Bill Bailey live show where you viewed him from within the washing up bowl. Surreal and funny as always..

Thanks for the comments guys, its shot with the sigma 10-20mm at around 14mm and f20. The carrier bag has a hole cut in the bottom and placed on the glass from a photo frame supported around 12inch from the floor. The cameras placed pointing upwards and 12sec self timer used. Have processed the shot below using the Topaz plugin in CS3 using the HDR setting, now I am not a big fan of HDR

Great shot. The HDR definitely improves the poor light on your face in the first one (and makes you look more craggy and interesting ). Nicely done!
