There's a magazine copy cat challenge afoot!
It all started at Debbiedoo's blog and if you click on the blog link, you can see what the other copycats are up to.
I love magazines. They're full of so many great ideas and I always find inspiration between the pages whether it's Victoria Magazine or Vogue. So after deciding to participate, I had to find an image I wanted to re-create. There were so many, it was really hard to narrow it down to just one.
The magazine photo I chose to imitate was shot outside. So I thought, I'll do this outside, but then I didn't like the way the pictures turned out.
So I thought... hmmm... maybe I should try this inside.
Here is the original page from the May/June, 2010 issue of Victoria Magazine:
Below is my inside version. I switched the fruit to strawberries and since I didn't have a taller jar with a lid, I used a vase. The only thing I had to buy were the flowers.
Thanks for stopping by and having a peek! And thanks also to Debbie for hosting this event!

I love your inspiration photograph and I'm amazed at how you were able to capture the same feeling. Hopping over from Debbiedoo's Magazine Copy Cat Challenge.
Beautiful, just beautiful. You are very good copy cat. I actually like that you used strawberries instead of cherries..great pop of color. Thanks for sharing, and I will be doing this fun challenge again.

Love your still life, the strawberries are the perfect pop of color for your version! Thanks for sharing.
Great copy photo. I love it. This was a fun challenge.
Oh my, you are wonderful at this! I love your breakfast table kind of combinations. The sharp colors of the flowers and the bright sun contrasting with the vintage books. Mm, mm, I love it.
