Well done Michelle! I think the focus on the peppers is great. I wonder if a less reflective background could have pushed this shot up more ...Like maybe past my entry! ~~~wink and giggle here~~~
Well done my friend!

Very clever. Love the bright opposing colors.

Eh, if you wanted a better score, you should have probably taken those peppers off the plate and put them against a uniform blue background. But then it would be contrived. I think it is great and more real the way it is. Maybe f4 would have would have been a bit better, dunno.

I've learned that people vote with their eyes, then they go back and just to justify the score they gave ending up as nitpicking. Half the time I don't believe people believe what they right as it reflects to the score they give.

Way to go. I'd say you topped Norman Rockwell with this one. : ) The processing is perfect for the subject.

I didn't enter this challenge because I couldn't come up with a concept for it! So, I have to say that I thought this was ingenious actually! And, while I had no idea who this shot belonged to while voting, I can honestly say that this was a great shot and concept.

For someone who is going along, TRYING to find something to create a negative comment, anything is fair game!

The voting in here lately has been really "off kilter" as have some of the comments. I have no idea what has been happening in here but, I can say that some people wouldn't know a good shot if it came up and hit them in the face! :)

And, the routing comments were so helpful, were they not?! ;-)

I always thought your expertise is in shallow dof and getting close, this proves it to me once again

Great shot Michelle, I like the processing in this case, it gives it a surreal feeling, almost normal rockwell in another dimension

cheers
