Thanks to all for the positive comments.
@wizard509: my works are never perfects, so you are probably right. Anyway, I attach the original photo I shot. It seems to me that even in the photo shadows show different densities, that's why I create different types of shadow. Thanks for spending time watching my drawing and giving me interesting hints.

lupen, you are correct about the photo shadows "show different densities", but look closely at the photo and you will see that all 3 objects have a very dark area under them that firmly attaches them to the surface so they do not "float", I am knitpicking here but that's the way I see it.

Hi lupen.
Like your picture.
I was so inspired with your picture and couldn`t to forbid myself to draw one detail. Beg your pardon.

Thanks again to all for your comments.
@Jvila: I am glad to hear you again. Thanks a lot.
@wizard509: I understand what you are saying. I attach a new version with 2 small dark shadows under the sugar bowl and the coffee cup. Thanks for your comment.
@RUSS_USSR: thanks for your hint. Very, very nice texture that give a more realistic (3D-like) effect (I keep in mind your beautiful works).

Luca - Are you using a studio photograph for your reference? I can see the umbrella strobe light reflected in the tea pot and two white reflectors on either side in the reflection on the tea pot.

lupen before you get Mr.after me. I want this firmly understood. It's perfect! and I have no further criticisms to offer.

It was good before but in my opinion it's better now. Thank you for your extra effort.

@gwpriester: yes, I use a "standard" illumination, with 4 soft lights. When needed, I add a spotlight from the back to enphasize the objects edges.
@wizard509: only criticism can help to improve, so you are welcome.
