Still (real) Life

No bouquet of fresh, vibrant blooms here, this is a real still life.  The roses are weeks old, crispy, dry, but I love those faded colours. The candles are burnt down to the end, there's a curry sauce stain on the un-ironed table cloth. No hiding real life here!  I've faffed with it to give a hint of the faded grandeur look I was  going for. I've faffed with it because I have a ton of things I should be doing, That is the way of the blipper I fear :-)
Inspiration at low levels, I fear Alfie or Zeph may make an appearance on Tuesday!
