Good contrast, detail and lighting.

I'm not too sure I like the ice in this shot, but I know what you wanted to acheive, and this is a good attempt.

You got the colour spot on. Good luck (5)

This is funny and a nice take on the challenge.

There are some hot spots, that need dealing with and I'm not so sure about the composition of the final image, but that is just personal taste.

I love the colour and teh detail in the fruit (6)

World Enough, And Time

This is great. I find it clean, well composed, and the exposure is spot on. It seems a little soft and the border is (IMHO) too big (that is just my opinion!), I love this shot.

Good luck (7)

Orange Pop

The title is really what make this one stick together - without it, I would struggle to understand the significence of these two objects.

Compositionaly, it's spot on. Clean and well postitioned.

It is a little soft, and lacks the extra punch of a saturation boost.

All in all, a pleasing shot (5)

Carrots
by EdGhoti

Comment:
The colour is great, however there are one or two hot spots creaping in on some of the carrots.

I also think that the composition could be improved by either cropping wider to fit the top of the top carrot in, or cropped closer to remove the background all together.

Salsa!

It certainly won't be a mild one!

The colours are nice as is the use of a shallow DoF, however the lighting lets this down. My eyes are constantly drawn to the hotspots on the lager peppers.

The colours are good and the light is too (I actually like the shadows cast by the apple).

However the whole thing is a little too soft for my taste.

I also like the composition of the shot - the reflection is cool to. (5)

Fresh Mushrooms
by Atlantis

Comment:
I like this, as it tells my mind a story - I'm given a context and setting by this shot. It's not just a shot of a fruit or veg thrown into a fich tank or a glass - you're washing the fresh mushrooms - getting them ready for a dish or a salad or to just eat.

The colours are well represent, not too over done or understate, and the exposure is spot on. The focus is in all the right places and I like the creative use of DoF.

Good luck with one (7)

Makin' a Splash!

Comment:
One of many variations on an overdone theme for this challenge (sorry, that sounds mean!)

This one however had been very well excuted. The colours are good, but there are one or two hotspots. I also think it's cropped a little too tight.

All that said, it's a good image (5)

Hot Love

Great study of shape, colour and lighting, although there are one or two slight hotspots.

Other than that, I love it. (7)
