my first idea; probably just one of half a dozen with this subject.

Est. score 6.26

The setup:
The peppers were fixed with thin sticks pierced through the background cloth.

Nice crisp photograph. I really liked this one. The only minor things that bothers me about this photograph is that there is a secondary lighting reflection on the 2 peppers on the right. It could just be my eyes but, its a bit distracting.

This is an awesome shot and your creativity is wonderful. Your reds are beautiful and the greens compliment them.
