I went over to Tewkesbury today to bumble around the various junk/antique shops there. There are rather a lot - maybe 7 if not more. I gave myself a budget of £50 to spend and guess how much I spent?
£1 - yep - one whole pound on a 1908 copy of The Connoisseur - I am a big spender you know.
Anyway I figured I'd put it with a few other old bits and bobs though doubt any of the props are as old as the magazine.
I finally downloaded the software for the Huey the other evening - now I have absolutely no idea whether this looks ok or not - I'm sure you'll let me know. The display is considerably different to what I'm used to - hopefully for the better......

You prove that still life is as much in the choice of subject as it is in specialist lighting setup and so on. Great shot. ....Peter
A great still life with wonderful colours, it was a pound well spent.
Mary
Excellent still life... bit confused by whats going on to the right... other than that love it
Back in a mo with another version 
How strange - I've just come back to this one - first time since yesterday - and it looks absolutely awful. Way brighter than it appeared yesterday and the sides of the hat are a mess too. It'll be interesting to see what it looks like on the monitor at work tomorrow!
V2 Definatley an improvement....Missed the first version anyway Alison.....
