This is just great. It looks like a painting to me. I like the two elements together and the lighting is super.

A really lovely still life, the lighting is gorgeous and the sack complements the pumkin beautifully. Nice work, well done.

Once again, this piece is wonderful. Out of your pieces (so far that is ^_^) it's my no 2 among the best. I like the other pumpkin-shot too, even find that one perhaps more technically perfected, but this one speaks more to me and though they are both obviously arranged this one seems more "natural" in the setting.

Part of what wins me over is that the lighting is more dramatic in this one and the background poses more tension, without poking in the eye in any way. Without the interesting shadows and the oblique tendency of the backdrop (can you say that in intelligible english and get away with it? (Just one of the hazards of dealing with non-native english speakers...)) it would have been just another pumpkin-shot. Now it's friggin' fab pumpkin shot... ^_^

You seem to have tinted the color-hues, either with clever lighting or with post-processing (or as happens to me now and then, by some measure of luck, but having seen the rest of your gallery that option is pretty much ruled out ;) ). Nice work there. I like that the way you handled the highlights too by the way.

I like this! It is simple yet screams out talent. The shadowing and light ran great with this shot. Nicely done. Fantastic talent from you!

Miss Ballou, I do believe I like this one the best. The color is great and I really like the texture of the background. Great contrast.
