Well, I for one think it'e very good for an offhand still-life, usually to get results approaching that you would be thinking arranged lighting with a light meter and test shots too check composure, exposure, focus depth, lighting direction and background etc. properly arranged lighting is just about everything with still-lifes, a la studio setting, so I'd give it a VG under the circumstances.

Quite neat and I like the reflected orange-yellow.
