Went looking for a useable definition of minimalism today. Please remember that I am no expert at this.
My working definition is as follows --
Minimalism is the stripping of all extraneous "stuff" from a shot leaving the barest of necessities to have a subject. There is no context for the subject, so often there is little or no emotion involved, as well.
In this case, I have "stripped" the other m&ms away leaving only a single pink one. I suppose I could have flipped it over and had pink on pink as well, but I liked the blue.
I do not like this shot, but I was too lazy and tired to shoot something really cool.
Oooooh. . .I LIKE how you did the pink on pink. And it makes me hungry to be totally mindless of calories and carbs and go get me some M&M's!! Thank you very much!
I really like the lighting on this -- the trace of the shadow under the candy gives it depth and interest.
i'm sure it will be even more minimalistic, by your definition, when this m has gone the way of all good chocolate .. in fact that very pale pink makes me think you've already sucked off the very vibrant red it was made with ..
is that an m&m .. like a hard sugar coated chocolate lolly ??..:)
