    Loved it. Been looking for a photography group in Broward County and found the spring meetup. Lex was friendly, helpful and encouraging (I have years of photography experience but quite rusty especially with new with new digital technology). Got to take and compare some great photos, meet fantastic similarly minded people with no pressure or pretense. I am looking forward to April's gathering.

    Title or Location: This Still Life Photograph of "Grapes, Strawberry's and Wine" was taken in my bedroom in Orange County California.
    This image is a Still Life Composition of "Berries, Wine and Grapes" that I created on a rainy day in my bedroom. I used no fancy Studio Lighting at all. My only light source was a hand-held flashlight that I kept moving rapidly. It was an experiment in Light Painting when I couldn't go outside to shoot.
