Excellent way to make people think. At least that's what I think you are doing unless I am misunderstanding this ;) Congrats on 5th!

A pear bomb. Very strange indeed. I love the lighting on this shot.

I may be missing the point of this, but as far as the photo is concerned, nice low key lighting. Simple subject. Well, shot.
