thanks for the comments and fav's.....I went to the basement, found everything there except the apples, they were grown on my property, though. :D I used an old crate, an old window, cigar box and jug. Happened to catch a shadow on the right edge of the window, to try to make it look realistic, bounced light from left.
Oh and to the unchecked comment giver, I was not trying to make it look like anything from a mag..! I made this look as it did on my own, and I got it exactly how I pictured it. :)~

Great job. This looks like a French impressionist painting. My only minor critique is the somewhat awkward intersection of the top of the jug and window frame. |

Lovely balance of both color and massing in the frame. |

Beautiful still life. I can feel the dust and warmth of the sun. |

Well it's vintage -- cigars, rye jug, um- apples. It's grainy, that's the texture of vintage. It's centered. I never know what to say on photos like these: I could leave you with the above, or I could tell you grow beyond that picture you've probably seen before in an ad or catalog. The one you're trying to imitate here. What would a more interesting perspective do for a photo like this? From an elevated position, perhaps, so you could really place these items out of the reach of a departing soul.
Does this make any sense? |

This looks like one of those old posters you see hung in kitchens. Beautiful. |
