Thinking about entering this month's challenge, I was wondering if this qualified as 'Still-Life'.... C&Cs please! Thanks for looking!

As long as you don't start playing with your balls it's a still-life. Neat! What's the reflection though?

Nice, yes as long as you let your balls hang still, its a still life. But seriously, I'd add a bit more, make a showcase of it with other items around it. :-D

Given that that's an executive's toy, I'd say Yes. It qualifies ;-) Cheers, Diolma

Looks like a Canadian flag. I don't get what the Life part is in the Still.Shouldn't there be something with life in it ,but still.

still life or still-life - A picture of inanimate objects. Common still life subjects include vessels, food, flowers, books, clothing. a definition I grabbed off the net. I think "life" in this instance refers to painting from life as opposed to an image that comes from the imagination.

This is not my "second childhood". I'm not finished with the first one yet.

Good explanation, Tjohn, although I suppose here most of us are going to come up with a representation of something that was drawn from life, rather than actually have the subject in front of us. Let`s not take challenge themes too literally, have fun with them while still staying withing the spirit of the thing. Nice set of balls, bryster.

I never though I'd get to see your balls Bryster, and you have so many of them. 8) The reflections look great giving the appearance of space around the object, it gives that little touch of reality to it. I look forward to seeing what else your going to add to it. 8) catlin

I was toying with the idea of creating a newtons cradle. So, yeah I think it more than qualifies for the challenge. Looking forward to seeing what you do with it. I feel I should make a joke about your balls but I can't think of anything funny. Give me a minute...... Nope, sorry.

There was a very popular animation of one of these for the Amiga many moons ago, made with Imagine, I think. It was called "Kanakas" (knockers).

uummmm.... think?


tjohn ( ) posted Fri, 12 March 2004 at 12:22 PM

I thought to "knacker" as a verb meant to slaughter. I got that from reading James Herriot, so maybe that's Welsh? There is a knackerman in his books that picked up dead animals from farmers and paid them a very small fee and then sold them (the animals, not the farmers) to glue factories, etc.

English slang also gives us 'I'm knackered' as in 'I'm extremely tired'.or 'knackering' = a difficult or labour-intensive job (not used nowadays.
