Red currants in a bowl - still life

This summer, whilst touring the Cotswolds region in UK, I discovered an exquisite oil painting and it immediately hypnotised me. I could not afford the price to buy it, so instead I bought some red currants and photographed them on my dining table at home. This is the photo.

Nikon D300 ,Nikkor AF-S 24-70mm f/2.8G ED
1/125s f/9.0 at 24.0mm iso200 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Haa! We passed oodles of hedgerows just brimming with these guys on our walk near Broadway & Buckland today...never thought to make a still life out of them! This is a cracking shot - I love the green light on the background, and the redcurrants look wonderfully tasty
