Comment by Abstract:
I liked the way you masterfully played with light/shadow and texture with excellent bw conversion.
Post Challenge: If it wasn't for the unnecessary blurry mess, this would have fetched full-house from me.

Dammit, now I'm going to have to vote in this challenge so I can give this a ten. It must have been tough deciding whether to enter this in light or dark. I'm sure some people would hammer it either way. The lighting is perfect, and the darkness balances it just right. Very chiaroscuro-a-licious. The textures are fantastic. I think B/W was a good choice as well.

Most wonderful still life I've seen in months. Has the classic painterly look but it's all photo baby. Love it all. Great job putting all the elements and textures together. I have a hint on who's shot this might be, I wonder if I'm right :)

terrific light on the pears and seat of the chair. It looks like you've blurred the back of chair which might be a bit distracting. You could consider cropping some off the top instead. just an idea - good luck - 7
