Exquisite light!

Good arrangement and lighting of the peonies to create a feeling of lushness, abundance, and decay. The pearls are a nice touch. The open book is not looking as antique as perhaps it should, given the context. Excellent use of light and shadow, creating the feeling of a Flemish baroque still life. There is an opportunity to do something more interesting with the reflection on the vase.

I once had something with the same motif, but this one is better I think! Yes, I still have it on my portfolio, but don't bother to see it Bento, believe me on my word, ha!

Love the lighting and composition. This is another of your trademark still lifes and, as usual, very well done.

Wonderful lighting, Bente. Love the subtle colors and tones.

Es delicado, tiene sentido del espacio el color y la luz. Me gusta.

I like very much your still lifes, Bente. This one is beautiful. The soft tones and the lighting are just superb. Really nice.

Lovely shot; perfect lighting and comp.

And Happy Birthday too .... !

for being so very late to answer.

 

Tank you to everyone for commenting. It pleases me very much. The studio is as usual my barn and it's been a while since i used it last time so it was fun to use 'the light' again. I should do that more often.

 

And Ken ... thanks for remembering - so sweet of you. I know the day - 4th of July - is a special day by you in the States and because It's my BD the same day I have known that since I was a little girl.... and one of my greatest wishes is to be in US on that day to see how you celebrate.

Beautiful! Painting with light again, Bente? I love your still life shots!

I was not exactly painting with light this time. I rather think I let the ambient light from the dirty window in the barn paint for me.

 

Thank you Lou Ann for visiting and I hope you are doing well.

Very beautiful light and composition! Lush romantic flowers and books just always seem to go together, don't they? Very well done. Thank you for sharing. :)
