Ukraine – living in a war zone

Returning to a more classical still life setup I’ve used the water bottles which are used by the people surviving in the areas without power. The bottles aren’t perfect, I’m going to blame that on working from a very small and poorly lit photo. Again using a classical still life setup Ive chosen three items from what was a cluttered kitchen. The objects speak of survival rationing and aide. I quite like the idea of this image but I would have preferred the objects to be more definite. They look a bit Cézanne-esque with the imperfect ellipses which isn’t really the style I was going for. I think the surroundings would benefit from a reduction or increase in detail as they seem a washy and flat.
