I spend too much of my life on TPF!
Wonderful composition; I love the diagonals. This definitely sets itself in a specific period.

No longer a newbie, moving up!
Great shot. The composition is really nice, I like the shadows too.

Great lighting. A little too staged, though in my opinion.
The moment you cheat for the sake of beauty, you know you're an artist.

You are not the only one who shares that oppinion, Some Crit work offered via PM said the same. Only exception being the reflection of light on the glass being of no value, and now that I see it, it has got to go.

Oh, and I'm just realising that I am not the first to say so...

Yeah I corrected a lot of compositional errors from the last one of these, but despite this I knew the overall layout would be familiar. In fact I think it was my added thought to composition that caused the contrived look.
I now have collected five of the six props for the shot like this I have been planning for quite some time, I can't wait for the sixth one to turn up.

Timeless still-life classic. Would be a great painting.
