My husband and I collect these antique Aladdin lamps - we must have 50 or them - they really ARE nostalgic and you've taken a beautiful picture of this one. I like the window light that fades off to the other side of the frame. I also like that while the window is obviously very bright, your exposure isn't completely blown out. Nice work. 8

Nice idea for the challenge, the left side of the shot is a bit dark though.

Nice shot of some cooking tools of a by gone era. A little fill flash may have helped the foreground a bit.

Comment by moodville:
This is a nice set of tools, different from the norm, and ones that tell a story. The choice of black and white is good, it adds to the age that seems to come from the tools. A few things that I'm noticing that could possibly improve the shot - there are several items that are either distracting with the current crop or else cropped out. The basket on the left, the shovel on the right, and the two prongs on the upper left all could have helped by not being there. The bottom of the urn is cropped too tight, and although it is likely straight, the bands around it is giving off the illusion of being slightly tilted. I'm not sure what your setup was like, but I think had you taken the shot with more ground before the urn and cut off the top just past the 'hook thing with the cauldron' or even going portrait it would have had a more dramatic feel. Overall, I do like the mood conveyed.

Great lighting. Makes it feel like it's really an old photo...
