I am not sure I can offer much constructive here as I like this composition quite a bit (it blasted to the top of my favs for this topic). Perhaps the bowl at the back could have been a bit sharper. And I suppose more attention to the background could have improved the overall composition (I am looking at the way the horizontal leaves intersect with the neck of the bottle in the foreground).

But hey... I am just looking for little details that could make the image sizzle...I still like it a lot.

The yellow bowl upside down feel out of place and posed to me. I would love to see this with just the 2 bottles, I think that could be a much stronger image.

You're so right, Beamer. I was rooting around my home looking for something yellow to add to the two bottles...and only had the bowl. After I was done, I wished I had something else more appropriate or just shot the two bottles by themselves. (Oh well, it's yellow.)

So much possibility here, i understand how you fell
about creating a composition with little at hand.
My comment are: if you remove the bowl we loose her reflections in the olive bottle and create a dead white space wich is not perfect to improve yellow,
the second cork helped to emphase the big bottle not really realistic ( bottle with 2 cork?).
Just an idea a second green pale plant behind
could have done just as better and counteract the heavy green of the other, but there again could ruin
the ligthning effect.
In conclusion good work this is what i like about photographer imiginative creation and search of perfection.

I think this is beautiful minus the bowl as said .. very well composed ,beauitful light.. very pretty shot.

Thanks Lindy.

Great composition and DOF, I like the idea and the result very much.
Before reading the other comments I asked myself "why a bowl ?" I don't think you should remove it without replacing it by something else. As already said, the reflection in the little bottle is cool.

(sorry for my poor english).

It's nice to see the different shades of yellow all in one picture. Great shot!!

Thanks diezel99 and Did.
