Marble on Centre Stage
by Falc

Comment:
Cool image. It's a little grainy (especially the bacjground) and almost too dark to tell that it's a marble. I love how the light comes through the marble though! I can see the light beams on the near side of it. Very nice. Just too bad the graininess and lack of detail hurt the image so badly. This could otherwise be a definite ribbon winner.

Everyday Blue Flame

Oooh, this is nice. I like the hot color tones reflected in the metal rim. The DOF is fabulous. This piccy is awesome! Only, I see some spots and specks about a third of the way up from the bottom of the picture. Since the advanced editing rules are in effect for this challenge, I would defeinitely have cloned out those defects, because the rest of the image is so smooth and perfect. Probably I would also have used less JPEG compression, this is only ~50KB, you have ~150KB, make use of it. One point off for slight JPEG artifacts, one point off for spots. 8.

Technically, well done. But uninteresting. It doesn't catch my eye. Maybe if it wasn't so centered. Try getting lower, right down on the table, and put the apple on one of the thirds points. (Read about the rule of thirds if you haven't heard of it.)

LOL! This is very creative. What's the word? Anthropomorphic, giving human traits to inanimate objects. Well done, nice focus, DOF, interesting lighting and camera angle.

Glasses

Very very nice. A difficult composition to get right, done perfectly. It must have taken forever to get the glasses just exactly lined up and symmetrical. Good contrast and use of B&W. Hmm, too bad there's a couple of smudges/dust on the glasses.

Yech!!!! Nice picture though. Interesting background, good lighting. Oh, and, uh, funky idea too.

Soap!

Wow, what a great composition. Slightly grainy for my tastes especially on the bar of soap, so for that, no ten, but a nine is what this great photo gets.

No, no, no, they're all part of the story. He melts the chocolate in the spoon with the lighter, then draws the up the chocolate into the syringe. 8-) So brilliant, I'm off to try it now.
