Yep after a few moments of study one can figure out there are thin slices of apple? with possibly a crust of some kind. ;-) However, I fear you've been trapped by the "light caught your eye" as it does to many of us when we..... "see the light effect" and not "light and content effect." No question, beautiful light, and I'd have been sucked in by it also. The catch is, not only to recognize the light, but then making it work for you in creating an equally dazzling photograph with it! Maybe getting closer and making the shot out of the slices of apples and or some light reflected into the heavy shadow. But my gut feeling is, I'd have gone tighter and made the full frame out of the apple slices, and forgotten the title. By the same token we're looking at it on a screen and there maybe more detail in the slide shadows not seen here. It's a tough call as the light is neat. ted Ted Grant Photography Limited www.islandnet.com/~tedgrant - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
