Nice idea. It would have been better if the reflection had been sharp.

Much too washed out. Perhaps check to make sure that your monitor is calibrated properly.
I'd go as far to say you would have scored drastically higher because it's a great idea, had it been executed better.

Would be better if sharper and less noise.

The spoon might be better in focus and sharper. The dark area seems too gray too. Good idea

Comment by GreggeN:
You've done really well to catch the reflection so well here (and the model is a very good lookalike), but the pic is extremely grainy - what happened?

Comment by carolee:
Nice -- only suggestion is to bring the background down in tone. It's almost gray on my monitor, and I can see the graininess because of it.

Composition - This is not a very compelling image. The point of the photo is simple enough, but it doesn't say much else to me. It doesn't really have a lot going for it. There needs to be something more to this, like some kind of subject, but for the life of me I can't think of what. I guess I don't have a lot to say about this. I think an overhaul of the whole composition is about the only answer I have to solve the problems with this photo. Give the viewers something to focus on and keep their attention.

Technical - This is fairly well taken. Snow shots are tough, especially when that's pretty much what you were going for. It seems a trite washed out nearest the grass. Sacrificing some exposure time though may darken the greens in the grass a little more than you want though. Tough call...

Overall - This meets the challenge, but aside from that there isn't too much I can tell you or suggest. I think a nice clean spring slate would be the best place to start. The snow is finally gone around here, for now. Hope spring brings you lots of nice pics. Good luck in future challenges. - Inspzil
