 An old bell pepper I found in my fruit drawer. Lit low and from the side with a single light source.

Post was minimal.

convert to black and white, crop, tonal adjustments made by multiple curves adjustment layers. sharpening (highpass), save for web.

expectation?
I don't see this doing too well compared to some of the awesome landscapes I've been seeing pop up on here lately. I'll be in the last 20%, and I'm guessing my score will be 5.2 (If people are generous.)

Is this a pepper? Hard to tell. Either that or an inflatable bed, lol. The lighting is a bit harsh. BW tones are good. (voted earlier)
