[VALERY]

Two version for your assessment: the first is painterly with my beloved chiarascuro lighting style and the second one is an ordinary image.

I struggle which one to keep..

Very difficult choice Valery! I think I’d go with the 1st.

[Federico Alegria]

tough one indeed! however, i pick the second version since it gives me a more photographic feeling than the first one.

I like the second one Valery 🙂

I would never think of the 2nd as “ordinary.” I prefer the first image with the background darker though I would like to see that last gourd exposed as it is in the 2nd image. Both are extraordinary–though typical of your consistently wonderful work.

I like both, but would remove the second gourd as not necessary to the story.  Agree with L&S’ comment as I, too, would never think of the 2nd as ordinary!
