Hmm... mysterious. A clean dish, empty except for a ball. A dog thanking 
it's owner for a good meal, perhaps?

Nice modeling of the dish. I'm currently frustrated at 3D modelers. You 
see people modeling amazing things like heads and whole characters! When 
I try to do the same, things don't turn out quite right.... Maybe it's 
the tools I'm using (Amapi, HamaPatch, Rhino....).

Realistic lighting you used, too. Nice little touch the radiosity 
produced with the slight caustics near the bottom corners of the dish.
