I think the cropping is powerfull and the B&W reduction silky and strong, on the whole a good graphic image. My only beef is that I think of salt and pepper as two things that go together, with more similarties than differences. Same can be said of the subjects in about one third of the entries, but this is such a good shot it is my only criticism.

I wish you could have gotten a bit more light on the black handle or lightened the backround behind it to make it show a bit better, but this is one of my favorites of the challenge. good on topic idea well executed.

a lovely shot with no tie to the challenge.

Stong photo, but not too well tied to the challenge. You will loose points on applicability, not on other issues. I wish you could have gotten your reflection minimised , but even so the reflections make the shot.

lol . The title ( which I keep meaning to remember to ignore) makes this pretty good shot, very good.

Nice compoition but the newt's (?) head is out of focus.

not quite the right proportion

I wish the bottom of the pitcher was in the photo, It would make a strong composition stronger. There is alot of white in the upper left, either re shoot or crop to match more closely.
