not sure about the white background.... maybe black or gray would have been better (for the white)... but the shot is clean, original a8

Nice idea but the image is cropped a little too tightly, especially on the left side. I'm also wondering why the purple bottle has bits of green in it? Personally, I would've gotten lower in the shot and gave it more perspective, rather than shooting overhead but that could be personal preference.

Very cute, but this probably would have been better on a different color background. The white blends in, but it would be much better if it stood out. Maybe yellow or green would have been better? Still a nice idea and a good shot.

Fabulous composition, amazing colors, contrast, and sharpness. Simply amazing. My choice for top 3. Great job! It just all fits together.

This is a nice composition. The innerworkings of a piano are quite intriguing in their own right. I like your idea here quite a bit. I'm almost thinking that the calla adds just a bit too much and almost makes this 'busy' in some way. I think this photo could also benefit from full depth of field possibly... it also appears to be slightly over sharpened... I still like the idea :)

i will be adding this to my favourites, because there is a lot i love about the shot. have you, however, considered possibly cloning out the tree if it were at all possible; it's just that i think it slightly unbalances an otherwise spuerbly excellent image...

What an awesomely beautiful photo - in my eyes, very worthy of appearing in a printed promo. And very courageous you are in your technique of mounting the camera the way you did. I wouldn't do it myself :-(.
Way to go - keep up the great work.

Wow! Thanks everyone for the kind comments. As a beginner who is constantly amazed by the caliber of photos on this site, it is such an honor for me that this photo has been so praised. The comments and feedback I've recieved in this challenge (and previous ones also) has really helped me progress through the learning curve. Many of the people on this site are a constant source of photographic inspiration for me, and I am humbled that many of these same people chose my photo for the ribbon. I look forward to the coming challenges and, with any luck, this won't be my last ribbon :) But win or lose, for me it's all about having fun!.... and what a fun time it's been.
