Phew!

I thought of this after a failed attempt at photographing an actual acupunture session. I was driving home from work and thought, hmmm, maybe I could get all this stuff and set it up an alternative medicine cabinet.

I didn't even have a medicine cabinet in the house, so I stopped at Lowes' and bought the $11.97 one.

My dream came true. I had to place a yellow sheet of paper around the cabinet because I needed some type of border.

Looks very fun, but not sure why you keep the smoky quartz in there. I know it likes it cool and dark, but also doesn't stay will with the pyrite. Over all its a fairly fun image.

Whilst it meets the challenge it doesnt hold much intrest. The yellow makes it look like this was pasted on to a yellow BG Good Luck

Nice and crisp - Nice light. Just a tad too staged.
