| Amy, can I ask what you mean by "add alot of warmth to give an aged look" more specifically? This is stunning and always causes me to stop and pause... |

Window-light is the right choice for this picture. Or to put it differntly: it wouldn't have been the same picture with studio light. If anything, the shadows of the pears could have been a bit less heavy by using some means of relection.
You have a gifted hand for finding the right materials!
Congratulations,
Wim |

Natural light is beautiful in these instances. I wish to have a studio equipped with large windows so I can use it more in my images.
Great setup and expertly well lit and composed. Congrats. |

| Too much editing imo, looks like a painting. But nice detail with the shadows, and the vignette is another nice touch. |
