I saw this trophy at a local show at the weekend and thought I would give it a go.

I think I have done well, handheld, no flash at ISO 200 aperture priority at f11

what do you guys think?

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.

Greg, thank you for the brief tutorial on still life photography. As always, your posts are always a learning experience for me. :)
