That is certainly more chat than I usually generate. Here is some return chatter.

I wish I could say that the bar code had agenda (man, I wish I could say that!). She was actually drinking from the bottle (which was filled with coffee) and it got turned around. The other side is embossed with the words "Root Beer." We keep the bottle around because my son likes to drink his milk from it. And why the hell not say I.

What felt authentic to me were (a) the light and (b) her lack of a model-like expression. It appears to me that she is listening. I can see thoughts processing. It is an explanation to which she will not have to respond for some time.

Every item in this photo, except for the model and the phone, is a regular attendee. My home was built in the 50s and my kitchen has a very early 50s vibe. We have framed pages from the 50s edition of that Better Homes Cookbook. You know those photos of gelatin with fruit bobbing around inside and everybody wearing Leave-it-to-Beaver smiles.

I had much much better crops... but the lighting was more "correct" and therefore less interesting.

That Tupperware did exist in the 50's.

A missed criticism: That dress is falling off of her. It looks ridiculous in this particular shot, though perfectly fine in others. The dress belongs to my wife, has an open back, and didn't always fall well on the model.

You got it... a cotton field. The detail in the far off trees was possible by blending multiple exposures.

Edit to add: and thanks to both of you for the kind regard.

Very nice! HDR really saved that blown highlight and gave you a wonderful finished product.

Yikes! That lens is so revealing.
I love this. So stark and clean and almost shadowless.
