Hi Randall

Have you ever thought of contacting a major food company, these are great shots and would go well on there office walls or even as a series on the side of packaging or advertisement material for tomatoes, or other veg if you was to incorporate them into your shots, they look great fun to make. You've got top marks off me, it's also good to see the camera being used in a different manor. it just takes imagination..... and boy do you have some imagination...lol

Best regards, Ian

Masterful

I think this is your best Tomato shot to date, I really like the way you have created the light through the window catching the chair and spilling onto the desk and floor, there has been a tremendous amount of work put into this shot and very skilfully lit which makes the scene almost believable.
Top stuff

Thank you for the kind words Ian. I took your advice and finally got off my duff and contacted some food companies today, so will see what transpires. Glad you like my imaginary world, it does keep me out of trouble!

Thank you Steve. I?m glad you like this chapter of my imagination. As I said to Ian, it does keep me out of trouble! This shot took the best part of three days to complete. From sketch to cardboard mock-up to finally hand made wooden props. And then shooting and finally postproduction..Whew!

Hi Tom, no I don't grow tomatoes; in fact I?m not all that fond of them! I?m a fan of ?Hard Boiled? detective novels, so I was thinking of Sam Spade and Philip Marlow when I came up with this idea. I also like westerns ;-)
