I can appreciate the prep time going in and think you did a great job with the details. I don't mind the use of my name in the title one bit. I'm actually honored you gave the shot a go. I like the lighting, it's just different. In some ways I like it more than in my shot. I find this fun in spoof kind of way, eggplant for grapejuice LOL. Still it's all purple and good looking.
Confounding us with purple grape on purple eggplant sets the funny tone, but slicing the eggplant sends this brilliantly into the surreal zone. Very enjoyable.
Reminds me of the tomato ketchup shot : )
Neatly done and set up, and the flower adds that extra touch. The only thing I would say to improve is better lighting. good shot : )
Because it is a reproduction of an previously done shot, I am not able to resist myself from comparing both the shots, which I should not be doing, I suppose.
Nicely executed though it was done before. Good lighting. Excellent craft work in preparing the setup.
What I am missing is the connection between the eggplant and the grape jelly label (other than the fact that they are both purple). Bcos, Techo's shot was abt a tomato ketchup label on fresh sliced tomatoes, which was screaming the quality & richness of the ketchup brand. May be it is just me.
