Had this idea when I was taking the image for the circles assignment. I havent done many still-lifes before.

Ha Ha - Thanks Justin- We don't talk about 8 tracks much. Always was a black sheep and was banished. Last thing we knew was living on an island with Betamax & DAT.

That IS a cool concept. I'd toss the cassette covers out though as you didn't include any other covers. I reckon with a bit of thought you could come up with a few different shots out of these props.

Only time I ever saw an 8 track was in my fathers 63 Chev Impala when I was a kid.

Thank MA. Will have another go. I do find it difficult with the arrangement of still life objects. Will keep playing.

Mike has a stereo that he and a buddy bought when they were in the Navy. It has an 8-track player. He has a few 8-tracks that still work. He insists on playing them just for laughs a couple of times a year.

This is very cool... It would be neat if you could find even more samples of all the different iterations... I don't see any 45's with the bright yellow inserts or a Sony Minidisc... there's so many it would be hard to find everything. Very cool concept though. Nicely done.
