My 365 Project -Day 2

I'm still nursing this awful cold, so I'm pretty much stuck trying to find things to photograph in my home. I bought this bracelet a few weeks back and I fell in love with it because it has such a vintage feel to it. I decided to take a black and white picture of it and while doing so I discovered how the complete lack of organization in my jewelry box actually helped make the picture more interesting. It reminded me of when I pull out all my Christmas decorations.

My husband puts the tree up and then dumps the boxes of ornaments and all the trimmings at the foot of the tree and tells us to have at it. So I titled this picture, 'All The Trimmings'. I took the picture in color and then converted it to black and white with a subtle green filter in post processing.I also added a little vignetting to highlight the bracelet, since after all, it was the original inspiration for the picture.
