Outake from an "Apple in Gob" series

Much like Ronseal quick drying varnish, this does what it says on the tin.

Having got over the initial disappointment of not waking up to a romantic Canon 5D covered in red rose petals, or in fact anything covered in red rose petals, I went hard to work... taking my revenge on photo bloke through the medium of photography.

Lots of fun and games ensued... and funnily enough we managed not to kill each other or throw a flash induced temper tantrum. Perhaps it was the Valentine's edge that kept him and I perfectly patient for 3 hrs of gobbing stuffing and camera/ lighting tweaking.

The granny smith worked best. I'm gonna use it for a staircase exhibition in March. The photo, not the half tongue-mangled apple. I'm not THAT arty.

Bet Hope shows up with a serene dead mole in someone's mouth. Shot on 5x4... Damn you woman and your continued brilliance!

Better get the a spot of Mamiya on the go just to be sure, to be sure..
