Two more contenders. My group was in unison that their favourite was the wooden tray with the tea cup. And I have to say, it did grow on me a lot. However, the one I submitted was my favourite from the start and somehow I couldn't bring myself to not submitting this. Sometimes it's really mean that we have chose one. In this case I like each a lot...

So sorry this is rotated. No idea how to fix that...
Anyhow, this is the BTS. It's not that hard, as you can see. Simple setup with my black board as the floor and a black cloth as the background (I need to make more boards). This setup was used for each of the photos.
As daylight was fading I had to use my lights with a diffusor from the right. To the left I used black cardboard, but to fill in the shadows, I placed a white reflector opposite the lights. To 'mold' the light I used another piece of black cardboard on the right, which directs the light to where I want it. With shots like these the shutter speed doesn't matter at all, so you can go pretty high and use a low ISO and the right aperture that fits your theme instead.

This is the clear winner for me! And is also one of my favourites for the album. I love the simplicity and elegance. Great work, Laney.
