Great props! I wish the color remained after PP beecauce I look more at the spoon than the fruit.

Very lovely shot! I love the sharpness of it, and the b/w conversion is so nice!

wish there was more detail in the berries ... the composition, dish and spoon are great ...

Beautiful - black and white doesn't often work well for fruit and vegetables because the colour is so intrinsically associated with these items and affects our perception of them as food items but... it works really well here. Beautiful composition, perfectly exposed and nicely processed.

I like the line of the spoon but the berries just kind of come off rather flat. Maybe a selective saturation of a hint of the berry color would have helped it more for me.

I like the composition of this shot and the choice of black and white. To me though it looks like the berries are washed out. Would really like to see this sharper with more contrast.
