Hi Susan, greetings from the Critique Club!
Lighting
Regarding this picture of still life, it's notorious that you took some time to setup everything, and you've been very careful with the lighting and positioning.
This works for this shot, as the light is very even and balanced, without blown highlights and shadows. The only weak point are the shadows in front left, because of the bouncing on the ceiling / wall.
Composition
My favourite part about this composition is how you placed the pineapple, the grapes and the big grapefruit(?) in front. The fact that the grapes fall onto the table gives a very pleasing dynamic.
As for the cons, the remainder of the fruits are very piled up, like they were put in the back, without specific placement. This and the slight tilt of the table are in my opinion the things that people noticed unconsciously.
Processing
No problems here, it was nicely processed, maybe it could use just a tad more contrast and brightness, but it didn't harm your entry.
If you have any questions feel free to contact me.
Regards,
Joao |
