Thanks Bruce,Joseph,John,Rick and Dan for looking and giving me your thoughts on the tomato. First of all it is a real tomato that fell behind a cabinet that hold dishes and did not see it for a couple of weeks. When I guess it fell, we bought it (them) around two to three weeks before. John you are right, but there was six in this batch that we bought from the food store. When I found it, there was mold forming on it and had been bruised. So it was time to trash it, but I thought I would photograph it before it went in the trash. It did not have a tattoo on it. It is the shadow of the vine. Since it was old and beat up, I wanted it to be a dark image as, it is no longer a brand new tomato. I photographed with one light, a Sunpac 120J bare bulb flash in a hair dryer diffuser off to the side, that is where the shadow came from on the side of the tomato. The flash was set at the lowest setting which is 1/16 power and fired by a remote.The hair dryer diffuser was black and also had a black screen type material inside it. The lens was the Pentax 200 mm A. F4.0 Macro.... The diffuser it was created the look of the lighting....Sorry for this long post..Joe



Joe, my impression is interesting composition and light, but
underexposed and lacking contrast, especially of the flesh.
