Small setup in my kitchen, black paper background and 3 Weight Watchers bagels. Used a 580EXII flash bounced off the ceiling and wall. Cropped, upped the contrast, lowered the saturation. I think the only thing bugging me is the dark area in the lower right corner... we'll see how it goes.

You did a nice job with the lighting to catch such a beautiful golden color on the bagles. Looks yummy!

I think the warm tones that the lighting bring out make this image work well.

I quite like the low-light here. There's a softness about it that's very inviting. Nice work.

But are they real bagels or "Bubba bagels"? A Real bagel gives your jaw muscles a workout. Sometimes the supermarket fare is like a kaiser roll with a hole in it. Good lighting and detail on this, though the shot is fairly plain. (A "plain bagel", get it? No? Ok, I'll take my toys and go home now...)
