Oh... yeah... the stick is too thick to not be noticed in the thumb... that's the rule I heard one should use. Can't remove anything that's noticeable in the thumbnail image of it.

Still... it sucks. I hate DQs for anyone.

Yeah, it was slippery for me too. You can see the slices started melting because of adjustments I did (many times). I used a lengthier stick :)

I agree with you Giles_uk on the creative part. Its not a new thing I tried. I just wanted to try this for this challenge. Thanks for the frank opinion. I also had doubt on the approval of SC and submitted the original along with my entry when I entered into this challenge. I've seen similar cloning out methods got approved. Anyway, fingers crossed.

Comment by Giles:
Be interesting to see if it survives validation, I'm guessing you cloned out the cocktail sticks, I'd think that's pushing it for advanced but will leave it to sc. I google imaged searched for this challenge and a sea of these came up, surprised this did so well given its a cliche of sorts. I gave it a 5, unimaginative and not particularly amazingly executed lighting was flat and It just didn't wow me. Not to take credit away or have a go just wanted to give my honest opinion, was a good score and well done on your ribbon, it's just didn't connect with me.

this is what i meant re lighting //500px.com/photo/5306378

Congrats with your first (blue) ribbon. Well deserved, great picture (especially the two peels the banana is resting on).
