This is pleasant enough, but the unforgiving black background with no depth to it and the strange clipping of the selection on the vase aren't helping your cause :-(

10 cents won't get ya far these days :-) Still, I know what a make-up stamp is so I'm just joshing. If this is YOUR Pez collection, I'm jealous!

by Bear_Music

Comment:
"Skunk Island" is a made-up name :-) It's a tiny bit of an island, privately owned, called Burnt Island, just off the Southern coast of Spruce Head Island, a few miles South of Rockland proper.

Challenge description: "Place interesting elements in the front of a photo to draw the viewer's eye in and create a sense of depth."

This is a lovely image in all respects; in a free study, I'd be giving it very high marks for the ephemeral purity and grace of the composition. But for me the challenge is asking us to use a foreground object to lead us into the image and the presumed subject further in. So I'm in a bit of a quandary here.

7 at the moment, because it IS beautiful and there IS a foreground object, even if it's leading us nowhere :-)

Another Bearish find on a wall somewhere, a pleasure to encounter. There's enough impact here to bag an 8 :-)
