Easter is almost here.
And my wife started bring out her decorations. Gave me another pohot opertunity.
Great fun! I wonder if the bunny on the far right was cropped that it wouldn't bring out the lit bunnies more, while keeping the tonal range.

I would lighten the bunnies in the shadow a bit, not to try and match the lit bunnies, but just enough to give the composition better balance.

I love it. One of my interests lately has been focus stacking. I think this photo might be a perfect candidate for experimentation in that area. The bunny closest to us is out of focus. I wonder if you could get them all sharp by focus stacking. Of course that would require a re-shoot and you might not be interested in that. Fun photo.

I'm generally not a fan of out of focus objects close to the front unless they are all around and directing us to the one in-focus subject. I am, however, a big fan of what you've done with the shadows here! Those happy little faces hiding out in the baskets add interest IMO.
Thanks for all your comments. I took several hours trying to get a special look and never got it just right.
I saw another photo on Viewbug that was so interesting then tried to duplicate it but never got it just right. Will be trying again soon. I was in contact with the Viewbug person and they told me how they got it but I couldn't duplicate the process.
This one here has glass and silver foil behind the glass making the reflection. The reflection was very bright so I needed to toned it down by lowering the clarity, next applied a very small amount of blur. I could have focus stacked but was interested in just getting the second rabbit sharp. I'll keep listing to everyone's advise and try it with another object.
