Tomatoes. Natural Light.

[Paul]

I saw an image in a magazine and asked the wife to get me some toms with stalks on. She duly obliged, and I removed all but one stalk.

 

Here's my three takes on the subject - all taken with natural light from the window, with a reflector to the right hand side to bounce light back into the shadows.

Thanks J, - and for reference, the third was rotated slightly to separate the stalk more.

No 2 for me as well Paul nice lighting.

I'd go with #2 too, the DoF in #3 is slightly too shallow on the stalk.

That looks fantastic Paul......and.....and.....so very close to an iPad drawing I did using the Procreate Art and Graphics app.....take a look.. ;-)

Your new lens is going to be a real winner......I bet you are frustrated by the weather today?

Number 2 is very good. I am looking forward to seeing more that you make with the knew kit.

[annie]

Love these Paul

 

shot 2 for me as well.....

 

When I was in catering we had huge photo posters like these on the walls of the bistro area.

Number two for me, too  :-)

 

I bet your wife was mad at you when she picked out all those tomatoes with stalks, then you went and pulled them all off except one!  ;-)

Really good pictures Paul, I think #1 edges it, it has a sort of surreal feel about it,

No 2 for me. Would not look out of place in any magazine, obviously Tomato weekly would be the obvious choice
