Well done Jill. Much praise.

Thanks Daniel...it did take a while, as I kept changing things around ...but all in the enjoyment .

This setup resembles the delicate and fine shots we can find in cooking magazine. I imagine you have spending some time to get all of the elements placed in the right position...A very fine entry Jill!.

Thanks to you all, I really do appreciate the input. I just selected ingredients from my kitchen and herbs from the garden...they smelt wonderful that much I can tell you.

Tommy & Penny a dinner date, would be my pleasure ;-)

Very successful visually and I think I would love a meal from your kitchen.

Eric touched on what I like best about it, the shadows. They're soft from the perfect light setup and lift the subjects off the ground giving life and depth to the shot. Well done indeed.

Jill, The attention to detail is astonishing. BRAVO!, is what we would say in Cyprus :)

Very nice Jill. The colors are exceptional. Everything looks really crisp and sharp against the bright white background. I also like the soft shadows created by the bowls and greenery.

Thanks so very much Jerry, Debi ( of couse you could), John & Penny.

Rod, Ernest is an excellent cook...I have taught him :-)& thanks .

Yup, you've got it all down. The pieces of the picture and the ability to do a great set-up. And I'll add that the exposure must be spot on too to get such crisp looking colors and details!

The light, the composition and the colour dance together charmingly. It's an impressive skill to be able to set up a shot like this, and carry it off so well.

Lovely colours & the slope makes for a great lead in to the picy. Excellent picy Jill. ........... Ernest must be a good cook:-)

So nicely arranged I can never do this. Lovely colours too,

Beautiful still life, Jill, and so well taken. Great colour and subject variety. Love it!
