Veronica, that's really to much honour! You make me blush like the red peppers in my picture. It's oke to show them the picture, but maybe you should tell them it's just another rookie trying to learn something by hard work and looking how the others do it. :-)
Thanks for those kind words. Kees

Kees, great. I enjoy your work, vibrant colors and composition.
Ocasionally on my way to school in the morning I'll stop at a supermarket & pick out a bag of these colorful fruits & veggies for my drawing classes. The results are always a delight. It would be great if I could pull up your image on computer & show the kids how real artists arrange their objects!

Thanks for the comments.
I used the light thru the window from the right and a white screen on the left side to lighten up the left side of the image.
Cheers, Kees

G'day Kees,
Good work. I like the vibrant colours and lighting you have achieved here. Excellent choice for the theme. I like the one pepper standing while the others are on their side, although I find the 5th pepper that you can only just see at the top right slightly distracting.
Cheers, John

Hi Kees,

Amazing clarity and detail in this shot. Very well illuminated. Did you some kind of softbox?

Oh boy; you have no idea how I've been busy with these veggies : slicing them up, making 'compositions' on the table, combing with hot peppers in erotic combinations...
My kids thought I'd gone crazy...;-)
I had some nice results, but they didn't mad it to the entries.

Anyway, your result is very classic and the colors match very well with the dark background. Clean and Crisp. Congrats.
