I like the contrast in this. A peep or two wouldn't hurt either. ;)

Cool idea! Great shot and I would also like to see a full frame version. You did fantastic controlling those specular highlights. The softbox and mirror did the trick...will have to remember that!

Oh and I agree using the rule of thirds would have been a better composition.

as textures go, lots of it here. I find it very hard to capture the metallic looks of items like this. You have done a great job.

You're absolutely right. I thought of that when I cropped it. Unfortunately, I shot it so tightly that there wasn't any room for thirds. And this was the best of the bunch for lighting.
I guess, given the solid black background, that I could have added a large black border and re-cropped, but I just wasn't there last night.

Thanks for the comment.
