My favorite in the challenge. Very Rene Magritte feel to it. i think the nail polish is the most unsettling part of it.

It took me a while to work out what this was. It would be better if there was some more light to define his shape. There is also a blue-cast which should be fixed in editing. Nice idea though.

Strawberry time

Hello from the Critique Club,

I didn't vote the macro challenge so this is the first time I've seen your image. My first impressions are that the lighting and composition are well done and the shallow depth of focus helps the strawberry look like it is coming out of the frame (slight 3D effect). Overall, it looks like a fairly standard set-up that the voters have seen many times. This would provide a "I could have easily shot that" feel instead of a "I wish I had thought of that" feel. I also think that your score suffered a little bit for not being "macro" enough. A very solid, technically strong image that might have scored closer to 6 if entered into current healthy food challenge.

Feel free to send me a PM if you have any questions regarding this critique.

Greay texture and strong detail. The lone figure works really well - where are they going, what are they thinking, etc...

Its a nice photo, but the manhole cover spoils it a bit. shame the person wasnt nearer the steps so you could have cropped the manhole cover out.
