Convert from RAW
Levels, exposure layer for WB and gamma tweaks.

One piece of white formica, window lighting and a silver reflector to balance it a bit. (The light, not the window;))

Lovely colors on the snippers and then you see the sharp metal. Nice job.

You have such a great eye for lighting and composition; your images are delightful to look at. I don't mind the girlie secateurs; are the plants fooled as you approach them? "Hm, look at those pretty things she's carrying, look really nice, they do." SNIP!

I've never seen secateurs like that. I like the rust - it shows that they serve a purpose.
