Interesting photo. Good lighting control. I'm torn though. I keep wanting to see some color on this - in the peel or handle of the paring tool, but it's good b&w!
Really nice photo! The lighting is so interesting...combined with the B&W. You've made the apple look almost artificial...or glass-like....whicj is really neat, with it being inside a glass bowl. I think you spent a lot of time with this...and it shows!
