 My Wifes Grandmothers silver tea pot and sugar bowl, badly tarnished now,Captured in Raw with a canon 580 snooted diffused flash at Camera right, I think at 1/64th power, down low enough to light the sugar bowl reflection in the tea pot. On camera left, slightly back of the sugar bowl, a MR14ex Ring light at about 11:00 to bring dimensions to the subjects, I think that one was about 1/32nd full power.

I think a lighter backround would have made this one stand out more

It might be my monitor, but this is almost too dark for me to appreciate properly. The black on the tarnished silver together with that beautiful polished wood (what I can see of it in the foreground) is a very appealing color and texture combo.
