Greetings! I am taking [user]Louis[/user] up on his challenge to comment outside of our comfort zone. That took me to the HDR gallery -- not sure if it is truly outside of my "comfort zone," but I typically don't like HDR stuff. . .

That said, your image caught my eye because it is not the typical application. I honestly think in this instance, it works very well. It adds a lot of definition and depth that may, or may not, have been present without out it. As a result, it almost feels like you can "touch" the pepper. Also, the color combination/contrast is fantastic.

I'm a negative space freak, and i keep trying to visually move this to the left so that there is more open space on the right. To me, it is so centered, it almost feels static. Throwing a bit of "unbalance" in, I think, would help to add interest to the shot.

Great work, btw.

the curve of the hill, the repeating shape of the windmills - positives for the challenge, but the image seems to suffer from a bit of soft focus

This has a nice geometric form but the image appers taken at a very low resolution which makes the straight lines of the masts vague

I love the composition, but it's to blurry. Use a tripod next time.
