wonderfully lit. I'm wondering if you were able to do that yourself, or is this naturally lit by some other means?

Great macro and very definitely abstract. This is excellent.

food $1... Paper $3... Being told it isn't abstract enough by DPC Voters? Priceless

It's absract enough for me to give it a decent score. But I'd go higher if you had managed your light a little better. This kind of shot should have no shadows. They are especially distracting on the yellow side with the onion. Still this is a good shot. Don't worry about hte DPC voters. They don't get me either.

Next time you're feeling low, come back to this picture and remind yourself what you're capable of. I answered in your thread, but saw this and wanted to comment here as well. This is a beautiful self-portrait and you obviously agonized over sharing this much of yourself. You have a good eye and understand the art of expression.

Keep at it. You clearly love what you do.
