Just some Bell Peppers I shot, wasn't super inspired by my original idea which was to make an extremely appetizing salad (it was good it just didn't look ubber professional. Anyhoo, just set this little scene up! Hope it goes well! I also hope to keep learning from everyone here, some of my scores have been a bit rough but I hope it'll pay off in the end!

I like the mood lighting for the death scene. Would be nice to see more of the death weapon.

Unique composition, lighting could use some work. Not voting just commenting.

Maybe a TINY bit too dark - I just wish I could see the knife a little better. However, I think the contrast overall is great! I also love the perspective, and the differing sizes of the peppers. Very creative and fun looking image!

I like the colors against the black background. They really pop.

The subjects kind of blend into the background, the knife is barely visble, they would have been better against a white background where they would have popped.

The low key tones on this picture definitely go along with your theme, even so maybe could have went with just a little more brightness in the shadows to bring out the knife handle more

i could bearly see the knife. shouldn't the focus be on it not the green pepper? th light should also be more intense and focused on the subject

Love these colors. The composition strikes me as perfect for a large poster. Well done.

The knife blends into the background, maybe a different colored knife would have been better.

overall way too dark. the perspective looks strange, or is the gren pepper so much larger than the others?
