Same settings, film, and dev. Tried a diffuse light from above this time. I like this one better than my first attempt.
Not in love with the background, but it's kinda fun I guess. I think I want to try painted gradients or darker paper on my next background to create greater subject seperation without needing to light everything so extremely carefully.

I've been learning about still life concepts and one of the big ones is called tension. Tension is when elements in a photograph unsettle, create visual contrast, allow imagination or contemplation to find something greater than what is simply presented. This is one of the major components behind a great still life and it is quite difficult to achieve.

Do you like this one better than the first one?
