Here's another low key experiment from Genesee Country Village, also where my photo of the spinner was taken. Always liked this shot and enjoyed taking some time to tweak it.

FWIW, this was the original image.

@ArtGeek it looks like a Dutch still life from around 1600, very nice 
Genesee Country Village & Museum covers mostly the 19th century, but I'll take circa 1600 Dutch. It's a faux Rembrandt.
Fun fact: people think Rembrandt painted very dark with muted colors, but it turns out at least some of his paintings look that way because of the varnish on top.

@ArtGeek yes, I wish I had seen the bright originals. And galleries don't help, you have to peer through dimness at something 4 or 5 feet away behind the security barrier. I think what I like best about your photo is the wonderful use of light.
@CaraBruar The light was there, and I just took advantage.
