"Spock's Brain"

I couldn't resist buying this brain shaped eraser yesterday in a dollar shop.
Wonder if I should go on a quest trying to illustrate all Star Trek episode titles. They often had very poetic names, it may be fun to come up with a different interpretation!

For those not in the know, "Spock's Brain" is considered the worst or at least one of the worst Star Trek episodes ever. In it a woman steals Spock's brain without harming him in any other way, and they go into search for it. Spock tags along, being moved around with a remote control. All poor Leonard Nimoy had to do in this episode was walk or stand around with an empty stoned face. In the end they put the brain back in, and Spock is actually conscious and helping by telling McCoy which wires to connect. As I said, awful stuff.

Thank you! To be honest, I don't do much for lighting. This is just my kitchen table. At first I tried to do it with daylight through the window, but it was all too white washed and overlit. Now I close the curtain and photograph without flash and it gives these really nice pictures. I have to thank my new camera for that.

I can only do it on Saturday afternoons though. In Summer I tried in the evening after work but then the sun was coming around and it was too bright again, even with curtains closed. And if I wait until it's dark and then use the ceiling lamps it is not good either.
