Nice photo! I like how you manage to take a colander, the potpouri on the table, and a napkin and turn it into a Dutch master still life complete with the "divine light" shining in from the side. Frans Hals meets EOS 40D. Awesome!
I do believe psJohn forgot a "P.S. Thank you Jenn for pointing to the Dutch masters." Hahaha. Really interesting photo. I think it reminds me more of a detail from a painting Vermeer would paint - should he have been living in a modest Brooklyn apartment during an economic crisis in the 2000's. Not to mention during an age dominated by speed, cyber optics and LED screens within screens within screens...
Purchase prints from Le Clique Members at our new Etsy storefront.
About us:
We know many different types of people: Old and young. Some with background studies in the arts and others in the Sciences. Some may be self-taught tradesmen. Although they have divergent careers and very different upbringings, we've found that many have a common interest in photography.
We all love to press the shutter button, hear that tiny "click" and know that an image is made. Maybe it's a portrait, maybe a landscape, or maybe just a happy accident—the images taken are as different as the individuals that took them.
We formed Le Clique to bring together all of those different people, give them a forum to post their work, and enjoy the juxtapositions, harmony, and contrast between the things they love to photograph. Our contributors have two very simple rules: you must take the photo yourself and it must be for the simple joy of taking it.

Well your both right. I have been on a quest for light. trying to re-energize my painting.
I am curious to see your paintings now... links?
i've been working on a website (of actually thinking about one) for decades now. So sorry no links to paintings. hopefully soon.
love the light, and how it moves in the round shape
Definitely thought it was a painting at first glance. Very nicely lit.
