I did this for the 'creative thinking' assignment in Studio 26, then reread the brief and realised that PS wasn't allowed.
The objects I was given: a clock, boots and a box.

It took me a while to get this shot - I kept getting an empty feeder :o)
I first saw one of these pretty mosaic glass feeders at my yoga instructor's, it then took me a while to track one down online and a long ten weeks or so before it finally arrived. It looks gorgeous in the sunshine.

Well, they are fairly healthy. Made with oats, unsalted butter, honey, organic dark chocolate, dried cranberries, mangoes, ginger and pistachio nuts, with just a little brown sugar. Drizzled with more dark chocolate.
Studio 26 figure to ground assignment. Although this wasn't taken specifically for the assignment I was aware when taking the shot that I was consciously positioning myself to get the most uniform background, without the distractions of kitchen appliances such as toaster and kettle, which were just out of frame to the right.
