I'm not a great fan of those colours I fear. Decent approach to two techniques.

I think your apples are too shiny - takes away that amazingly warm impression one gets from the original. A wonderful imitation though.

Tribute to Jacko's "Drop of Honey" (#23317)
by DCThiessen

Comment:
There's a wierd optical illusion that givs this a sense of being tilted, though rationally it isn't - though that may be me, as I have a dodgy eye and it can get confused with things like this. I preferred the stronger perspective in the original, but this isn't a bad version at all.

Liberty & Justice, Great Briton Edition.

Comment:
Perfectly executed. Doesn't have the variety of reflections that Setz's more varied drop sizes gives.

Comment:
Has precisely the right feel - and in the organisation of the apples themselves, is arguably preferable to the original. Strong work.

Secondary primary glass

Comment:
Actually of higher quality than the original - but without the warmth of colouration of Jacko's shot. Pretty damn impressive though - a sensibly lit.

GEEWHY'S YELLOW

Comment:
Intriguing idea, and I don't see that leaving the door itself still coloured fits the process ... after all, Gordon didn't keep his window frames coloured ... I don't think. It's not, i think, strng enough compositionally of itself, this image, and the challenge connection will take a number of folks more work to find than they're going to be willing to put in.

Comment:
Has the effect, but the bloom itself lacks the sheer density of variation in petals that Setz's shot had. A worthy effort though.

A Toasty Tribute
by alanfreed

Comment:
I beleieve bod used a blue flourescent tube to light his original, and i think this sufferes in comparison mainly because of the blue part of the light. The important thing about that, for me, was the balance of the internal and external light in the shot, and the use of a tube light meant that he was able to get those elongated reflections in the surface of the toaster, which is unfortunately a missing element from this shot: and its remarkable the impact that small a detail makes.

Defining Feature - EYES

Comment:
I'm no fan of pet shots particularly, but this, given the challenge and your chosen source ... I have no idea what to think. I think I like it - both the shot itself, which has the mournful put-upon-ness of a pet when they're being messed about with, and a nicely subversive realtionship to the original and all it's many 'close companion pieces'
