Great image, would have looked just a bit more tasty if you added a nice dripping sauce over the one side of the shell. Sorry just my input to just make it want able
Well actually i planned to create a cinemagraph with sone artificial steam coming out of the mussel. I didn't edit that yet, but i will soon and leave a link in a comment. That is why the image is so simple. Thank you for the advice
this is the final cinemagraph

Hi Sebastian -- love the lighting, color, "pose", but now it looks like the mussel is smoking. Would you try just a hint of water spray on the shell and the mussel itself? It feels a little dry to me.
I actually had the exact same thought as I was shooting the image and I tried to add moisture to the "meat" but it created some weird highlights that were very distracting and I decided to go with this look. Good point though. Thank you
Love the 'cinemagraph'. Quite brilliant.
Love it Sebastian well worked out
WOW! Great shot .
I love the simplicity of it
Thank you!!!
beautiful shot!
Very creative. Have come back to this photo a few times. "Concept imagination" and creative lighting...nice!
