Had my mother in law for lunch over today, she brought me some sweets and straight away I thought about the shot...was a very hard shot, as we both were laughing at the idea of "killing ur mother in law at dinner"....and the double sense of the sentence made it more funnier for us to shoot it....
The challenge is a Symbolic still life....well a person is a piece of nature, that when dead is still...for me this was the symbolic life that became still before dessert :)

I like the black humour involved in this image. It would be great to see a whole series of photos based on the idea of poisoning. One image is not enough, I want to see a full scale project. Excellent work.
Thank you all for the comments!
I did not watch the movie yet (seraphine) only saw the trailer.....
by viewing it...well....I have to say it is a huge compliment you gave.Thank you.
Very very much appreciated.
Wonderful take. Even looking at it the first time, I also had a big smile, thinking about the photoshoot, and how you must have enjoyed it. Definitely from a French/Italian movie. Thanks for doing it.
This reminds me of the part in the movie "Remember Me" where the girl talks about always eating dessert before dinner in case she dies while eating- or something along those lines.
I like the contrast in this picture, and the textures on the hands.
This is a fabulous image! Great idea, wonderfully done. Reminds me of a lot of French movies that stay with you - "Seraphine" was the last one for instance. Congratulations. 10
