Will the Real Pencil Please Stand Up

I think including the edges of all the pencils would have helped your score. a good concept and way to find a different way to present the challenge theme.

Excuuuuse me! Apples don't come in orange...

The lighting is very well done, but I think it needs a better composition as the apple is in the center. I do like how you expanded on the apples and oranges theme though, a nice touch. :)

I think alot of voters will have a hard time connecting this image to the challenge. I think it has to do with the car and you are in Cuba, but I don't see a crowd really, just a few other cars. 5

Try using the Save For Web function in photoshop, from there you can set your image size to 640 pixels and the file size to as close to the 150 kb size limit. Here is a little DPC tutorial to help you through it. Hope this helps you out.

If you have photoshop, you should try to use the Save for Web feature, it will let you set the image file size and pixel size. Here is a tutorial on DPC to walk you through it. I hope this helps you. I saw you got your image up to the max file size but had to make it small. This is because it still has exif data attached to it that tells you this was shot with a D80 and all your settings. What the Save for Web feature does is get rid of that data and allows more of the file size to be used in image quality. Hope this helps

She seems engaged in a conversation to me, but I am giving the benefit of the doubt. try to work on the focus abit, maybe steady yourself on a table or make sure the focus is locked before you click. 5

thats a nice exposure for a tough lighting situation. seems like a little bit of a stretch for the challenge, but I like the camera also pointed at her in the background.

i like the depth of Field to single out the redman. I think I would have tried not such a narrow crop.
