 Creativity overtook hunger when I spotted this still life of dinner in my kitchen. I have a very patient husband who held the black cloth while I snapped some shots. Sometimes things just look good right where they are in their "native habitat."

I'm really digging how the outside of the colander is completely blended in with the black background, making the drainage holes look like lights. That was the second thing to draw my attention. The first thing was the light glancing off the crab legs at the top, which was a tad distracting from the overall presentation. I'd like to see a little more detail on the crabs, also. Nice picture.

Good background, nice lighting, interesting subject. But it doesn't really spark my intrerest (maybe it's that I live on the coast, and am used to seeing crab like this).
