I like the way your DOF captures the entire flower in focus. Set against the black background it really stands out. The lighting is right on. Really well done!

This was definitely the standout entry in this challenge. It is so realistic and believable as a film noir. We all agree that those low votes are irritating and malicious. If someone feels that strongly they should have the courage to stick up for their opinion and write a critique to explain their reasoning. They owe the artist at least that.

That sock goes perfectly with your red sneakers! I hope that is not your toothbrush. I’m glad there was someone else in this challenge that considered a sink to be a bowl. Great minds think alike!
