"Milk and Cookies"

THE STORY BEHIND THE IMAGE
My daughter is a pastry chef and these are some of her cookies. The bottle of milk was purchased special for this still life set-up. If you look closely you can see the cream that has floated to the top.

The photo was taken as the morning sun shown through the dining room window. I love the shadows on the glass and bottle of milk...expand the image and you can even see the shadows that the letters in the name "Ronnybrook" made on the milk in the bottle.
And then there are of course the cookies...the one on top with the frosting is my favorite.

I improvised a back drop by using a drawing pad and my grandsons notebook. Oh Yes...I ate the cookies and drank the milk. After all, photography is hard work!
