This was all natural (window) lighting and I set the exposure long enough that I could go mess with the blinds while the shot was taking! Sneaky, huh!

Cool! Highest finish for me, but still not a PB. :) Thanks gang!

(Apple started to get thin by the end 'cuz I had to keep trimming off the brown, lol.)

Wooooow, that's beautiful. And natural lighting is the best.
After all, it's what the masters used.
What would Cezanne have done with diffusers and the like? Hmmmm?

This picture looks to be slanted to the right. I like the idea but I think you can put a little more light on the fruit being careful not to bleach it out. Other than that, I think it is a nice picture. I like that grape over there by itself. You might want to think about dropping one or more onto the cloth on the table also?? Just an idea.

Very regal shot, the yellowing of the cut apple does distract a bit however.

Great focus and color here, but I'd prefer to see just the bowl and not the cloth underneath it. Also seems a bit tilted.
