Grater in the night

First the colander, now the the grater, what else has spots in the kitchen. This is your run of the mill, 4 sided kitchen grater.

After getting what I wanted with the setup and colander lighting, my daughter's friend stuck her hand in a shot while I was re-framing and suddenly I saw a balance to the verticality of the grater. All of which led to this unusual composition.

I have versions with much less blur in the hand but, if you know my work, you know I'm inclined towards shakey imagery.


other sizes: small medium original auto

I like this a lot! But the hand just really takes the image down a few levels for me. For one - the hand is well overexposed; and two, it is blurry. The grater is this image's best asset and really well done. Just not a fan of the hand. jano (GREAT IDEA BTW!!!)
