I recently posted a photo of forks and was referred to your fork photos. Yours is wonderful. I like how you have no border at all, and the tones of the fork and shadow are really nice. i live the curve of the shadow as well. Mine is here is you'd like to have a look:

There is some similarity, but I think yours is more abstract, the shape is so distorted. i like it more.

regards,
Gaja

Why didn't I see that earlier? Great work as usual. I think I like your first version (this here) better than the yellow one, but that is nice, too. I just hppen to like silver better than gold. I'll get it into my favorites if you don't mind (but even if you do, I guess you can't stop me - LOL)
Congrats.

After a couple people pointed out the shadow on the left, I tried to "fix" that, and here's the fixed version. Thank you for all the comments!!!

Not easy, that's for sure, but you've done an amazing job with it. There's a bit of a shadow on the left side that I think should not be there. Otherwise, the picture is perfect. I'm looking forward to the second attempt. :)

It's very refreshing to see something out of the ordinary, even if you took the idea from Wellman, a great digital photographer with a background in architecture. She concentrates on structure and her photos are very pure, I like them too. It's great that you are noticing the work of others and learning from them, that's one of the teaching techniques often used in photography school. Although many might say that you should find your own style, I believe you can only do so after you explore the style of others. If nothing else, this will increase your technical knowledge. Another great exercise is to find the work of a painter or sculptor and try to recreate some of their work in the medium of photography.

I like the clarity and simplicity of this photo. In this sparse creation, you've captured the shine of metal, a perspective that illustrates a third dimension, and wonderful shadows. This is a very crisp image, the lack of grain, or noise since it's digital, makes this image even more effective. This is either a brand new fork or you've repaired the nicks and wear marks of the typical fork. The only thing I would clean up is the faint shadow on the left - erase it altogether and you've got a perfect and very "graphic" image. Well done!

This is an all around great photo. I really like the perspective of the fork that you have created. Also the details, lighting, and shadows are excellent.

I didn't realize what this was from the thumbnail, but am glad I checked it out. This is a fantastic photo - I'm ready to get the knives and forks out right now and give this a try! Wonderful job!!! Inspiring!!! 7*****!!!! Regards, Dan

I don't want to deceive anyone - the idea of fork and shadow is not mine. I've been looking at Ilona Wellman's pictures (I like her pictures VERY MUCH), and I was trying to come up with something similar.

This is a very nice shot. I love the composition and the depth of field. The only thing that bothers me about this is the extra little bit of soft shadow on the left hand side. Great work overall.

It's always amazing to discover how much you can do with the most simple things! (if you're a great photographer like you, of course!).
