 Main light from right, weak light from above, reflector on left to even out the exposure. The lip and interior wall of the morter initially pale chalky grey, much lighter than the outside, but a tiny bit of olive oil cured that problem. I realize it is important to remove the stems before grinding, but I thought the image more interesting with the intact puya chiles.

Kinda boring, no offense intended, just feedback. I think it's the flat black. Needs SOMETHING there. 6

That looks yummy and dangerously spicy! I wish the lighting were a little softer.
