Classic B&W photo. The lighting is very nice, the composition is good and the tonal range is excellent. I like the highlights in the glass and the shine on the table. Good subtle shadows. Great photo, well done.

Superb still life and even more superb in B&W . No color needed here for the artistic elegance of this one. Lighting is totally top notch.. The nuances of light and shadow in the glass bowl are perfection. Composed just right with the main subject off center and balanced spatially by the flow of the draped over the side grapes and those laying down. Deserves a higher rating - wish I had one left. Best of luck in the contest. You get my vote hands down.

I love how consistent your work is. You continue to make the ordinary extra ordinary. Love the use of natural light here casting off soft shadows.
Great placement and fine focus.
Good Luck!
Now I am off to grab a bunch of grapes! 😉

I like the soft b/w look to this shot. Beautiful shine and texture to the bowl. The grapes look so soft. Great smoky-like b/g. Great clarity, lighting and shadows. Very nicely done!

Very nice still life photograph. Very well composed. Good lighting, Sharp focus. I like the background you used. This subject works nicely as a black and white photo. I am sure it would look good in color as well.
