I love the B&W treatment here. I also love the perspective and the depth used. Nice textures and good use of the frame. Really there isn't much to complain about except one thing... While I like seeing DPC members in their shots, it just seems to get a little tiring sometimes. I do love when you break away from the self portraits like with your last entry. Not knocking down the score or anything. It is an excellent shot. Highly rated (actually my highest rated in the challenge).
Nice treatment, though the edge of the doily in the foreground is unfortunate, it's pattern does add a nice, busy texture that complements the design on the tea set...
This is one that almost begs for gobs of deep dof - f/22 or thereabouts & I think the noise from the subsequently needed high ISO would have lent well to the mood you've already established. I just think having both the tea set and [you?] in focus would have been more compelling.
Now I do like this, it is definitely one of the better shots I have seen so far in this challenge. The whole set up is good and everything is placed well. What jumps out at me immediately though it the lightness of the fingers, the aura around the spout of the teapot and the edges of the table cloth. I know it is basic editing, but if those points were straightened out this would be my top pick!
Love the shadows and tonal contrasts. Nice DOF. Oversized hand with tiny tea kettle is a nice touch. Backdrop is a little distracting, but still a cool, creative shot!
