You really have an eye for the abstract. If you gave me 5 years I couldn't come up with an abstract type photo like this. The colors and shapes are great.

This whole series of pics you uploaded are really great. Extremely creative the way you can creat these colors and patterns. They look like paintings.

I gave this a seven and meant to get back to comment. Colors and cropping were the two things that stood out in my mind, but, the lighting casting the interesting shadows was decent as well.

"cracking image" isn't a phrase I use much, but I think I agree. Nicely done.

Kylie, this is a cracking image!

I didn't vote in the challenge, though I did look through the entries, (quickly) and I remember seeing this one. It stuck in my mind.

The contrasting colurs are great, the yellow on the orangy red of the wall, did you manipulate the colours much, at all?

The shadows caused by the blinds are magnificent, they add depth and a feeling of being there, they somehow make it so real.

The subject itself is quite interesting and that's the key for me, take an interesting subject and add dramatic lighting, shoot from a interesting, original, different angle and you end up with something like this. I know its not automated like that but that's how I disect it.

I just hope you remember me, and invite me to the opening night at your gallery!

This is my favorite, except for the table cloth with the fruit being in focus so strongly, it takes the emphasis away from the main subject a little.

Your entry in the challenge was perhaps better than this because it is more abstract. But composisionaly this one is better for me, just a personal choice I guess.

i feel disoriented too with this view
and i like that
that is the strongest quality in this picture 4me
maybe thats why i wld like to see it a little bit more cropped at the bottem (foot of the glass) but it should be done without cropping the little blue on the right of it cause thats a very pretty detail

I feel very disoriented looking at this. I'm sure others will have less trouble looking at it but for me it's tough.
