 Just tried to mix up the lighting a bit for something interesting. Put fork on mirror, bounced SB-25 with blue gel off wall behind fork as main light and added SB-25 bounced off ceiling at about 1/2 power to get some silver reflections to come through on fork in places. Post = minor adjustments to levels, curves, brightness/contrast, saturation plus USM.

The fork and reflection make a lovely design, all nicely in focus.

Amazing use of light and reflections. Excellent sharpness where required. The blue adds interest. One of my favs in this challenge.
