Greetings from the Critique Club

Strong points: The image meets the challenge, it is soup bubbling in a pot, it definitely looks like soup bubbling in a pot. The edge of the pot is interesting to look at.

Weak points: It is not all that interesting of an image. It does have bubbles, and bubbling, but the first thought is "soup", not "bubbles" when someone looks at it.

Technicals: F3.1 is too shallow a DOF to get all of this in focus, and the image would have benefited from being in focus over the whole of it. 1/60 sec. is too slow a shutter speed to stop the moving liquid, which gives the image even further blur.

Overall: Even though it meets the challenge, this is not an interesting enough image to score very high. If you're interested in making food images, look at images in cookbooks, food & drink magazines, and even ads on TV. They have some great ideas for food images.

I hope this helps. If I can be of further help, please let me know.

Take care,

~Ursula

I like the shine of the leaf and droplets, and also of the water where it isn't indented. I agree with Karen, I'm not very fond of the centred composition(s).

I can't say that I "like" this. It's not the kind of image I would hang anywhere in my home. But I must say, it's well done. Fantastic editing job. The best really. ~10

A strange picture, hard to figure out where you're looking from. Wide angle lens explains it. :) The branches against the sky are superb!

Very nice showing of this flower. I like how the focus fades gently to the back petals. I'm not so sure about the centred composition.
