Looka at that! This seems known to me! Now I'll have to decide whether yours or the one with the white background works better...
Edit: I found the other one. It's called just simply 'Toothpicks'. And the white background with the blue shadow is more appealing than a solid black. Thats why I gave one more point to that one. Hey, I give you a 7, after all.

What a nice oxymoron. Another background would have made the cube come out better.

Hey.... that's not a flower

This is scary. I had this very idea this afternoon (14th Nov) when I was eating a mandarine. Unforunatley, ideas often look better than the photographs: The background should be smooth, as opposed to the fruit's 'toes'. I'd also have liked harder shadows, but I guess that's a matter of taste.

Woahw! This ain't water, is it?Those tiny specks look awesome. And you cropped it just right. I really can't find anything to critisize. Looks great. The first 10 I'm giving out for this contest!

The berries don't come out well enoug against the background. You might have concentrated on a smaller detail, so that the berries would have one single leaf as background. You might even have cropped this one.

Luckily the picture is not as complicated as it's name. Nice orange-blue complementary contrast.

Well I really don't know what this is. Except for the center it doesn't look like glass at all! A great composition, except fot htose bright spots at the bottom.
I really can't figure it out. I'm eager for your explanations after voting!

Well, now, this really looks like a circular selection around the lens. Especially as the colour matches the DPC background. I guess you used the DPC grey as photoshop target for the color correction? Anyway, it doesn't provide a refreshing view of a camera lens. There's nothing too special about it.

I bet you're crazy that you can't do any cloning, eh? What a great idea. I feel attacked.
