Anna Nesterova, Thank you, Anna! I tried washing it. It was very difficult – the background texture was rough, the branches were thin, it was backbreaking labor... It would be easier to reshoot, but that would be a different job...
Lerka, Thank you so much, Valeria! Still lifes are a joy, and they're a joy to photograph, although sometimes you struggle with placement and lighting, taking countless takes, and then slaving away at the post-processing. I make a lot of mistakes, I'm still learning... But it's very interesting! And the beginning usually catches something, like a reflection in a jar of jam...
Leonid Levonovich, Thank you, Leonid Sergeevich! And the shades and highlights are only due to the grainy texture of the background. If it had been smooth, this effect wouldn't have happened...
Iryna, Thank you, Irina! I tried it, removed the spoon in Photoshop, and compared them. No, I like it better with the spoon. I think you could position it differently, dipping it into the jam, parallel to the branches. I'm very glad you visited and commented.
Stylish work! The reflection in the vase is wonderful! If you put a spoon in the vase, it disappears. Still lifes are terra incognita for me... I often hesitate to even comment
Thanks!
and delicious too
Thanks, interesting comment!
Thank you!

Subtle color tones and lacy branches.
Thank you, Leonid Sergeevich!
