Nutrional Balance
by banmorn

Comment:
From the critique club:

A very interesting vertical composition. At first glance it illicits a very up feeling. Its object being more to entertain and please the eyes. The dark background, whether used to hold the composition, makes the colors reach out and give it that almost pop art feel. This picture simply makes the viewer smile. Disguised behind the expert lighting and above average composition is a healthy sense of humor which comes right true on first glance.
In real life, the structure would fall, but your object here was not to actually balance the fruits but to hint at the thought. Yet, it is this approach which gives it that odd comical look. You take care, minus the typo, to infer the nutritional balance and you have succeeded.
Since the composition is strong and the lighting is superb, there is nothing that I can add here. In particular you did a superb job with the lightinhg. The highlights preserve the texture and the fading into dark at the bottom gives it that artistic touch. Above all, you have made the fruit and the colors very true. This is a worthy addition to any port. In short, it is beyond my criticism. dan

Physical and Abstract Balance
by graphicfunk

Comment:
Hey Tiger eye: Thank you for your most astute observation. In your cursory look perhaps you overlooked that while the physical balance was symetrical, the abstract is asymetrical.
However, regarding whether it deserved 1st place, about this you may have a point. Following your logic it should not have even been considered for a ribbon. So put me anywhere you seem fit. A composition this bad may be better place around 40th or so.
