Artist's Comments

The envelope is actually a letter from a family member of mine that was in the Civil war. I set out to photograph the actual letter but I could never get it just right, so I just went with the envelope and a really old mini version of Romeo and Juliet.

Thx for the reply. I spent about an hour late at night with some candles and a lantern trying to cast the light across these items trying to get the right feel for the image. This was my first time I had ever tried still life so I know I have lots to learn, but I came away pretty satisfied with the final picture.
