This has a very oil painting look to it. Unusual colors but nice earthy tones.

Great idea but the execution just isn't there. Were this one if focus, I think you could add a whole point to your final score. Unfortunately it isn't.

Very shallow DOF. Can't make up my mind if I like it that way or not. The very center of the photo is focused. I think it'd have been more successful with a bigger f number and a greater DOF so at least the point of the instrument were focused. I like the framing however I think the subject is a little overexposed.

There is some distortion going on with this pic that may be on purpose but I'm guessing its from oversaturating the reds in this photo. Stunning image looking at the subject but the background is really grainy. The grain however makes it look like a photo from the 70s. Interesting pic. Good luck

I don't really like the ghosty effects on this pic. I'm not sure how they were created but I'm putting my money on some kind of light source. I think the framing would've been better moving the subject a little more to the right.

I don't know what this is, but its pretty cool. Looks like something leftover from 3 mile island though. Great exposure and color. For some stupid reason it reminds me of S'mores.

Looks like its just a pinch out of focus. Great idea. I'd have framed this just a touch more to the right to bring the pin decisively beyond the halfway point

Cute idea. I don't see this really as a macro so much but I think the idea is good and the exposure and framing are good.

Firstly, if you don't like my opinion, don't take it personally. I'll assure you that I'm not overpaid to do this. And because I take this to be somewhat professional, I will do this critique.

Composition - Excellent colors. The arrangement is very good. The bit of water on the olives is a nice touch. The only thing I think that takes away from the overall composition of this photo is the bowl showing on the side and thru the tomatoes and peppers. Otherwise, very well conceived.

Technical - Very well lit and framed. This is a nice crisp image that portrays these vegetables to be very tasty. I think this could be a little crisper, but not much. Very well taken photo.

Overall - Well conceived and executed photo. My only suggestion would have been to push the green pepper in a little tighter toward the center of the frame to show the whole thing. This would in turn cover up some of the bowl that shows between the tomatoes. Aside from that, I think you did well to get the most out of this shot. Good job with this shot and good luck in future challenges. - Inspzil
