interesting find! need to isolate them from the background somehow. maybe wait til it is darker and use some sort of flash or flashlight to illuminate them? i duno.

unused infinity idea? negative space? shadows? i guess it works for still life as well :) i like the color and you did a nice job getting the white background. i'd like a more dramatic shadow maybe.

helicopters! i'd love to do a shot of one of these falling against a black background.. slow shutter with a flash at the end to freeze it at the bottom of the fall. interesting texture but this looks more like a found nature shot than a traditional set up still life.might also do with a tad more contrast

Apples with flower
by willem

Comment:
weird apples. i like the forms and lines. even the uniform color scheme is nice. although the vase blends in almost a little too well with the wall... maybe you could use shadows to separate the vase, table, and wall a little more. actually i think the vase and flower alone would make a nice shot... or a different shot using the apples without the flower.. focusing more on the folds in the fabric and the texture on the apples.

too dark ;P just kidding! i love the drama. cool way to compose the shot. good use of negative space. i'd like to see a little more light on the top part of the bottle. technically this is a really good shot but it actually doesn't have a lot of emotion for me personally. it does fit the challenge well though which is more than can be said about a lot of these pics.

In The Fashion of the Old Masters

harsh lighting. lemon got overexposed... making the lighting more even and diffused would help. might also find a different way to arrange them so that they arent all laying in a straight line across the center of the frame.

i like the color and composition. lighting could be worked on. i'd try to make it more even and avoid the shadows on the wall. they distract from the subjects

great simple composition. love the use of light and shadow. good exposure. may have m oved a little so that the line of the corner doesn't cut through the jug in that spot. very earthy, natural feel.

would probably show up better on a different background but i get the whole white/purity theme. maybe a little more contrast would help too

Just For You

did everyone go out and buy one of these? i like the way the bg and subject colors go together so well. very nice exposure and good focus on the flower.
