Delicious Match: Strawberries and Chocolate
by megaera

Comment:
I agree that this is a delicious match, but I wish the chocolate was in focus. Much impact is lost to the viewer because of this. I like how you caught the drip just before it falls. Good luck in the challenge.

Nature's Match

Potential here...the background is quite distracting. Some warm early/late day natural light with these placed on a leaf strewn ground (or even dirt) would really make them stand out. JMO of course. Good luck in the challenge.

Most unusual. Have no idea what it is, but interesting nonetheless. Good luck in the challenge.

This would have made a great "Environmental Portrait" or "Self Portrait". I understand where you're going with this. Feels like it should be titled "Boxer" as "Boxing Match" implies a pair of boxers. Just an observation. I really like the photo. Lighting is very nice. Great focus and details. Best of luck to you in the challenge.

Nice use of a foreground object that works with the rest of the image. Well done.

Somebody has WAY too much time on their hands! :D Cute, clever, creative, borderline compulsive... BTW, it's legal now to remove sensor dust spots in the basic editing ruleset. Good luck in the challenge.

The processing is bit too much over the top for my taste. Sorry. Good luck in the challenge.

No match for the Allies

I recently picked up a wilderness survival game built like this one, at an antique store. I wonder how many will know what this is? Interesting take on the challenge. Good luck to you.

Pretty good match

What a wonderful find. Good eye to see this and do a nice job of getting the photo. Interesting to look at as this pair is just different enough to keep the viewer entertained. Nice job with the DOF to eliminate the background. Good luck in the challenge.

"Thought"

This has great potential. I like the background and the positioning of the subject. Perhaps it's the angle, but I wish her right eye (our viewing left) was sharply focused. Looks like the focal plane was at the nose/mouth level and didn't fall back far enough. JMO of course. Good luck in the challenge.
