A classic still-life..

The range of tones is great, and the choice of colour / grey objects is also neat..

The only distracting thing (and this is picky) is that you've picked up some barrel distortion in this shot, as you've obviously shot it with a wide angle lense? The line of the sill along the 'bottom' is curved upwards at the ends, and the top edge is curged downwards at the ends. In a perfect abstract still life world it'd be nice if they were parallel.

If you're using a zoom lense going to the middle of the range will often give the least distortion, or picking a prime lense in in the 60-100mm range if you're using an SLR.

I'd also have liked to see a bit more separation in tone/colour between the top of the image (floor?) and the sill, maybe a solid coloured rug, or a bit of coloured art paper on the floor.

There is much beauty in simplicity. I like this image quite a bit. The negative space at the bottom is something I can't really determine how much I like. I can't seem to put a value on its purpose other than balancing the composition to a centered view across the horizontal. The image seems to wlrk well with that part cut out also. Either way, I like it.... very nice work :)

Now this is what the martian landscape should look like. I love the composition movement between size and texture. It remains subtle to me that someone took a bite from the chocolat bar as the empty space reveils more points of interest. What is realy hiding under that bar anyways? Yes I am too curious.

Good lighting, focus, and composition. Nice mix of textures too. It meets the challenge well, and I could also see it as part of an advertisement but it lacks the 'wow' for DPC.
