I couldn't decide between these two photos. These are my juzu beads and my book that teaches Nichiren Buddhism. For the shadow, it is the logo of the Soka Gakkia International (SGI), a Nichiren Buddhist organization. This two objects are important to me because they have taught me to be a better person and fight through any obstacle. I have also found friends in SGI.I desaturated the bottom picture while warming up the top. I like the top one because it empfsizes the words "myoho-renge-kyo" or daimoku. It is used in chanting to attain perfect and complete awakening (enlightenment). I like the second picture because you can see more of the shape and the objects as a whole.
I really enjoyed doing still life because you don't have to direct anyone other than yourself.
