LED still life

[DES]

Greetings,

This is my first post after being referred to this website. The quality of photos I've seen is impressive.

I like to experiment with lighting, and I've been using various LED lamps for a while. This photo was taken with a 60W bulb in a 14" reflector with a diffuser sock and grid on the left. A bit of fill was added with a second 35W LED bare bulb light reflected off the ceiling, and ambient from a window.

Comments welcome.

Welcome to FocalWorld DES. Amazing control of the lighting in this scene - very well executed still life image. The LED lighting looks quite natural.

wonderfully clean colors and tones. it almost looks like an old master's acrylic painting. great job!

Welcome!!! I am really glad someone referred you.

The LED light setup you are using really creates a very natural feel. I really like what you have done here, and look forward to seeing more.

Welcome to the forum. Really nice intro image. The lighting is very well done.

Are the grapes real?

Thank you! You have a good eye. The grapes are from a local craft store....you'll probably see them again in the future.

Really nice control of the light. And thanks for giving the details of your setup.

I'm not sure about the placement of that napkin, though.

it does kind of make you think, in the same way a still life painting would..
