 This is actually a red pepper. For the background I used a black t-shirt, editing was very minimal, convert from raw, levels, curves, crop and resize.
Hope you like it :)

"Natural curves" is a great example of abstract, taking something ordinary and creating the unusual out of it. 52nd isn't too bad of a placement for your first challenge. The lighting makes this shot amazing, the softness it is able to create. The use of a t-shirt to create the backdrop, is great. I doubt many people could make such a nice shot with such basic elements. Like "beggs" said love the negative space, it really allows the viewer to focus on the subject. The use of black and red allows the image to stay basic and still look intriguing. I also like the softness and overall composition of "Natural curves". This is a very professional looking shot and I could easily see it used in advertisements. I personally can't think of anything I would like to see changed, great work!

Big 10! I LOVE how you did the lighting...how it smoothly grades from light to dark. Almost like an air brush. Very sophisticated and professional look. Also, nice line.
