dc.description.abstract Photography is a form of communication which fills the void between the written letter, the message and the visual picture. It is the most powerful image-making system which communicates concepts. still life photography is a representation of ideas through the process of photography . It is illustrative photography: an image is produced, originating from a preconceived idea. The preconceived idea, in turn gives birth to the final intriguing, eye catching image . There are two parts to the idea: what you want to say and how you are going to portray it. The challenge is to be interpretive rather than literal about your approach . Introduce the unexpected. Bring fantasies into the realm of reality . still life photography has alwas been well equiped to express abstract concepts. conceptual photographs dramatize objects in an unexpected way and help keep both your mind and eye sharp. In a world saturated with images, the ability to produce inventive photographs is essential and highly marketable . Simple, beautifully illuminated pictures are also necessary when clarity is critical . The aim i s to create classically, elegant image and to allow lighting and composition to carry the visual message . The still life photographer can take his time, and work carefully. By concentrating on composition and lighting, it can be completely controlled and refined. In its continuous effort to interpret the world, the mind actively examines, explores and draws conclusions from what the eye sees. Through carefully controlling a photographs content, the photographer can influence the conclusion at which the viewer will arrive. within the description of a still life photographer lies a plentitude of editorial and advertising assignments. still life photography is required for product packaging, catalogs, audiovisual presentations, print advertising and editorial work. The drawback of specialization can be reduced when the photographer shows an ability to function creatively and to master all aspects in these areas. This ability will prove valuable, allowing him a broader choice in markets. en_US
