I just needed bread sticks (sigh)

Here's a still life for you C&C. I am very pleased with the way it came out I just think it needed two bread sticks hanging out of the basket in the upper right corner. Your thoughts please

needs something coming out of the basket...perhaps the bottle which provided the vino.

[Mario Xavier]

agreed with ChrisC that would be great

[jeeperman]

Agreed, a bottle would complete the photo nicely.

[BJ Denning]

I love the distortion through the wine. The detail in the basket is nice also.

Yeah, that's what I thought too. I had thought bread sticks, but a bottle would have been perfect! I'll have to reshoot it, since I still have the fruit.

I noted you didn't say you still had the wine.

Hi Jeff,

For me, perhaps a little too much contrast across the basket - i.e. too bright on the right/too dim on the left.

Also, I like the magnifying effect of the filled wine glass and wonder whether something could have been positioned behind it to be 'made large'.

Perhaps a little (5% or less) foreground table top.

Good depth of field though, sharp where it needs to be.

But if you'd put bread sticks in, I would only have eaten them

But more seriously; yes, I suppose it is a bit empty in that corner.

HTH,

[jeffmoll]

This something close to what you had in mind for the basket, Dave?



I do think it's a lot more balanced this way, so thanks for the input.
