Absolutely superb. I love the image, and thank you for the detailed shooting information. Years ago, I tried growing dark purple beans and always thought it was a shame they changed to green on cooking - the purple would have looked good on the plate. They tasted fine anyway.

What a fine picture - and there really is nowt like garlic for most known maladies. The Romans used it and wealthier soldiers carried some with them to ward off infections 👩🏻🚀🙂

Another lovely setup. However, my laptop screen is a bit on the bright side which is showing up some areas, especially round the garlic stalks, that are lighter in tone to the rest of the b/g. Maybe if you increase the brightness on your picture you will see what I mean? I know you won't mind my pointing it out??
I once entered a photo into a club competition which looked great on my pc, but when projected in front of the assembled crowd(
), was covered in lines and streaks where I had not darkened the background uniformly. I wanted the ground to open up

Thanks Fiona, I took the image back into Photoshop, ramped up the levels until I was almost blinded and...there they were !! Your monitor must be very bright but well spotted. I loaded a version for you, please check it out and let me know.
Anyone else seeing nasties ?
Many thanks for a GEA Dave, lovely compliment.

Perfect version! OK I am going to alter the settings on my laptop as I am obviously the only person here with "second sight"
Congrats on the GEA.

My screen is set quite bright Janet, but I am not seeing any nasties. But when I have a dark background that I want to check out I try to remember to open Shadows / Highlights adjustment and view it with plus 35% lightening on shadows. It can be quite revealing...

If it works for you Fiona then tbh leave as is. I think brightness is to individual taste.
Moira, it's been a while since I did anything with a black bg so my fault for not checking....I used to,I forgot, very remiss of me hangs head in shame
Thanks for the feedback.

Beautiful composition! For some reason it fills like it needed some more lighting.
I added a modification, with some adjustments made.
Otherwise, great photo!
