Still Life: Cheese board

belle nature morte

Thanks for another call.

Gorgeous still life !! Marvelous light and shadow ************************

Wonderful; looks like a painting !!
Stay strong - keep your distance

Wonderful picture.
You dont ever need imagination and the tonalities seem from a painting !

Thanks Jose. I know you have done such photographs too. Yes, the same but different to a painting.

Keep well. Herb

excellent still life again Herb
wish you a beautiful week ahead:)

Good work Herb, I am looking up an old upload which I think might fit into this group.

Yes, I have seen it already and its a great piece of work which I admire too.

Best Wishes, Herb

Beau clair obscur.

Vraiment fabuleuse....!

Well, now I'm feeling hungry and I'm not supposed to eat too much cheese :-)
Take care and have a good week. Rosa.

Good that you enjoyed another of my still life's Rosa. Sorry it made you feel too hungry.

Keep vigilant!!!!
Herb

In my opinion, this is your best yet Herb.................the way the cheese board has been laid out is just perfect and the lighting is spot-on. Beautifully done sir!

You are so kind Kieth. I must admit that I too liked this the best of the three but it fared worse in the voting (but 3 in the top five is a good result I think.)
I know have quandary - I have more of these, - do I put more on here? If so do I continue to put them on as keeping a set or in batches? Decisions, decisions.
Keep safe. Herb

I'd save them as an occasional treat for us Herb. Single photos are best for me:-)

This is superb, in the style of the old Dutch or Flemish masters!

That was my idea here Gudrun. I have always admired the old still-life paintings.

Keep vigilant. Herb

Your stillife-series is really amazing ! Have a nice and healthy week ahead, Herb !

Thanks so much Ulrich, but I see you have done some wonderful still-life shots too.

Keep safe. Herb

Fantastic!

My thanks Dany.

Great still life!

Like an old painting.... only a glass with red wine is missing;-))

HaHa -the wine came later! In truth a glass or bottle of wine on here would have upset the balance somewhat I think. Glad you enjoyed it all the same.

You're right, the composition is perfect like that. It's only that I as a French woman always think of cheese, "baguette" and red wine together;-))

I agree with Christa. ..
A glass of wine would be nice for the painting or this picture.:))

In that case I refer you to my Christa's reply :)

Keep safe. Herb

Even tastier than the pears - pity I've had lunch. :-)

You are right George.
Keep safe. Herb

This is a cracker too, Herb. Well done

Glad you liked it Diana

Mince , il est bientôt midi et ca me donne faim

Haha - I think your cheese would taste better though :) Now where is that glass again!

I will join you in the mini feast- Yum

You are more than welcome Steve. This came just two place below your entry and one place below my pear study. A great competition where you showed your considerable skills in this art too.

Keep good. Herb

Another super still life Herb just perfect love to have that cheese board here now with a glass of red.
Regards TOZ

I know what you mean Toz. We actually eat cheese every Saturday night after our mains. Normally with more choices in cheeses and biscuits than this shows and considerable amounts of red wine too....hic! In fact I usually have some pickles nearby, along with the grapes of course! - Another still life in the making maybe :)

Regards, Herb

very well and tasteful presented!!

Well I can vouch for the taste on here. The grapes were particularly delicious.

Thanks for the call. Keep safe.
