 The follow up from my Still Life with Peaches
Some of you might be able to spot that it is mine because of the 'classic' look I love to give still life photos

I hope it does well but will guess in the area of a 6.7

Hopefully I dream to ribbon in this challenge as I take my still life compositions very seriously.

You are so good at this! That pealed apple just makes this still life come alive.

MAK - I really liked this one a lot - i thought the inclusion of the shadows in the background was a nice touch.

Nicely lit! Debating with myself as to whether I would have kept the shadow of the bottle in the crop ... probably not. I like the dark-into-light progression the background has if that shadow is cropped out.

Very nice composition with some interesting props...just a little harsh on the lighting. Good luck.

Pretty good still life. The right side seems a little heavy though but over-all I like it.
