PostLuminous Award WINNER!
This is a simple, serene image, perfectly toned, and invites the viewer in to explore it. I want to go sit at that table and meet whoever else sits down there, too.

This is a fabulous still life. I like the shallow DOF and the natural light.

I like this shot...even though the chairs get a little grainy and the corner of the room...focus stays on the plates...good subject for B&W

I like a lot the tones and the very B&W grainy background, a bit less the crop on left side. 7 for the moment.
Happy Christmas !

Nice lighting and DOF.

Nice sepia tones, DOF. But something is not quite right. It feels hard somehow, maybe too contrasty without enough definition? I'm not sure. But that's a great thing to wish for :-)

I really love this - the natural lighting, the shallow dof, and the duotones all create a lovely, classic feel.

Great warm black and white with nice composition and frame. I might've not cropped the left of the goblet but other than that, I like it a lot. :~) 7
