This is an interesting photo. It takes mundane utensils and makes them extraordinary. Great composition, and I like the black background and general low key approach. But the reflections are large, devoid of detail, and so bright they are distracting. A smaller light source might have been more complimentary.
i guess the real challenge of this Challenge is how to control reflections on metal. i had a hard time myself. all the scratches show. a brand new set wont work either.
