The font is difficult to read - but I like the picture.

Someone once told me to try and shoot so that your photo is not title dependent. When I vote, I usually do not see the title so I kind of depend on the image to tell me a story. When I voted on your photo, I gave it a 5. I saw several different elements all competing for my attention so I did not know what your main subject was in the shot. You don't need so much of the counter in the foreground because it does not enhance the image. Personally, what I think would have been cool would be to remove everything but the coffee maker. Pull it away from the wall a bit and have the photo be that and the tile. The black against the beautiful colors in that tile would have made for a great contrast.

Not sure what the significance of the magnifier is?

Comment by Teafran:
A very intersting drop shadow effect that works well with the rich tones and textures of the background and subject. A lot of very subtle touches in this image that create a very effective and favorable artistic impression. One has to wonder if a diffrent angle would have increased the shadow effect or ruined it - might be worth experimenting with sometime in the future.

This looks like an interesting lamp, but the amount of flash used robs it of the quality of the light it might emit. I'll bet those little pieces of cut glass bend and play with the light moving through them, but I can't see it here. Closer in with more lamp and less living room and less flash, and this could have been so much more.

That on-board flash is a harsh mistress.

Check out the Strobist blog, in particular this video intro, which does a wonderful job of showing how still-lifes (lives?) benefit from getting that flash off-camera.

Is it my eyes, or is this out of focus? I really like your composition, and the colors and contrast are really nice. The mood of the swamp is well captured.

It is a table shot, but you've done nothing to make it a nice composition.
