Love the refraction through the glass, the reflection off the metallic surfaces, and how it distorts the textures of the pears and the wood--especially the the wood.

Thanks -Meatballs on top of meatballs - it's a pot of 16 meatballs! Really BIG meatballs - 3 meals for 2 people!!

Never heard of it but it looks delicious! Also well composed and lit!

A little cleaning is in order??

Another good one Bob. I like your take on a subject that many of us have seen many time but never paid much attention to the light and form. Nice job! A though, tone down the right highlight quite a bit and add some light to central and even more to the upper left pear which already suggests itself a the main subject. Oops...sorry I tend to look at every photo as a potential fine artwork!
