quince

3 tag challenge; food + silhouette + black and white

[Kiran]

Wow, very artistic bw, Kali! Fav!

[Daryl O'Hare]

What are they placed on? I love the textures and shadows and the stem on the right!

[kali]

@darylo it's the top of an old wooden step ladder, well used :) yep the stem was the clincher

[kali]

@ikamera thankyou KIran :) pleased you like it, l think the border looks good large...

[Kiran]

@kali66 yes, it does. Didn't notice the border at first, those shadows and the light drew me in. If you don't mind, may I ask what did you use for lighting this? It sets off the texture of the wooden step beautifully while rim lighting the fruit.

[Paul Wright]

Love the textures and shadows in the whole shot, the wooden step the, bumps and pitting on the fruit and as for the lighting omg!! Fav :)

They're like a mini landscape, with the way the light lays on them. Love that stem.

[kali]

@ikamera it was outdoors late afternoon, sun behind and looking into shadows, I processed it a lot!!! mainly to darken and maximise contrast :)

[Chatreya (Cat)]

Best seen large.

[Mara]

Kali, I wouldn't have guessed it's natural light. It's perfect.

[Camila]

awesome!

[Maggie]

Lovely shot - the lighting is perfect. I love quinces - stuffed, stewed, jelly, jam, paste, …...

[diabolical mastermind of dark darkened darkly darkness]

very fucking weird inter-image border...im not sure if its disruptive or merely recontextualizing. great contrasts of lighting, texture, form, and mood.

[kali]

@ubiquitybutsomewhatdownsized I feel it needs to be there when viewed on black, to make the composition concise, I have a thing for this kind of border
