Kim and Koen, thanks for your insightful comments. With both of these photographs I was trying to capture that "old" feeling... the light and luminesence exploited by the old Flemish painters. That's why I welcomed the blend into darkness. Maybe I should have included a dead rabbit or pheasant for the mood. I used only the available light from an adjacent north window.
I appreciate your thoughts, thank you.

Kim, I do not mind the heavy shadows either - except then at the lower right point of the wooden object where it blends invisibly with the blanket. I was actually asking if it was intentionally to have them up to the point where there is little or no detail left visible (at least on my monitor).

Nice softness to this image... feels like old times. Especially the blanket used for a backdrop. I think you've done well with the lighting, as I don't mind the heavy shadows at all.. they give the image an old fashioned feel.

It seems you used a light source positioned at the rear left. The shadows are a bit strong, you could light them up using a reflector. I like the mood of the photo ! The colours fit together well (all brown-red-purple). The gray-green of the objects in front are very different in colour, but they seem to fit.
