Plan
I went round the local charity shop looking for items i could incorporate into me themes SSL. Luckily i only needed to visit one and they had all the items i needed. In my home studio i began setting up my display. I decided to use a black background as the natural backdrop i first planned on using made the items blend too much into the background. As it was in my home i decided to light the candle and allowed this burn so the wax would run down creating a drip effect before taking my shot. The fruit in the image i roughed up an burnt to give it an aged look. I decided to used an old book underneath the skull as this gave a shadow effect which created depth. I feel the contrast of items worked well.Nothing is in line and looks sporadic although it was intentional. The wine bottle was not planned but i decide to use this to hold the roses to give more saturation.

Post production
I did'nt really need to do much post production so i never took screen grabs. I selected sky on camera raw and darkened the black background as it look grey. I then used the brush tool to bright the saturation on the roses so that they popped.
