Interesting choices. I like the lower left one best, mostly for the lighting. Actually, the nudity seems a bit pointless given the fire and reflection.

The placement of the lower left shot is a bit problematic - it seems to me that it should either overlap the one on the right by a lot more or not at all. The small overlap strikes me as accidental.

CRITIQUE CLUB COMMENT

The idea is fairly clever and the title of this photo is what really sells it. Unfortunately, without the title the photo doesn't scream "kitchenware" as it should. In fact, the real focus of the photo is your face and your expression. As a viewer I spent too long trying to decide what your expression is conveying...joy...surprise...indifference? In any case, the longer I spend looking at your face the less time I spend seeing kitchenware. While your facial expression is intriguing, the subject of the challenge was kitchenware and a little more focus on the kitchenware would have helped. I have to agree with the comments you've already been receiving. The focus is a bit soft and the white balance is painfully shifted too yellow. While I see from your own write up that you liked the clutter and we should deal with it, I still feel compelled to comment that the best photos are kept somewhat simple. The clutter just adds more items to draw the eye away from the subject. As a critigue I'm trying to tell you ways you could increase your score (and thereby present a better picture). Less clutter would have helped your score. I think you came close here to having a much better score. A better white balance, sharper focus, and less clutter would probably translate into a score closer to 6 rather than 5. Keep looking for creative ways to shoot photos. I congratulate you on coming up with a fairly unique perspective and working at it to set it up. Good job!

Nice shot, JMO, but I think it could have been better with the model sitting facing the city, just a thought. The sky and the city are completely AWESOME!

I like the combination of whimsy and serenity.
