Nice use of overexposure, I would have liked to have the whole cup in the frame, is it cropped out for a reason? (the pixel dimension is only 500 across). Nice product shot -7- Mav

Nice idea and execution. The chocolate looks a little blurry to me

Clever idea, not sure about the lighting used though, there are a couple shadows that interfere with the colored rim. Other than that, this is a very nice take on the challenge = )

Forget Milk. Got Coke?

The soft focus probably won't work here (DPC), but I like the smooth quality it gives the shot. For more nostalgia though, I would have used one of the glass bottles. Not as easy to come by though. I also find the lighting a little harsh on the bottle. Overall a nice image.

This idea came to mind when I thought of this challenge too, but I wasn't sure how to pull it off. I'm gonna guess that this is either done with a blacklight or a colored liquid (hues edited in post). Looks just like a gatorade/powerade commercial, nicely done. Feel free to share how you did this = )

The lighting, whether purely from the flame or added from external sources, does well to make this shot work.

I really like the luminescence (spelling?) of this shot. Nice abstract as well.

Hot set o' wheels

Thanks to everyone for their comments and votes. With the top of the skate in focus, it really wasn't as interesting, hence the shallow dof used. I would've liked it even shallower, but without macro lenses I think that's the best my camera can do in that respect. I think I should have tried harder to hide the hockey stick so the skate wouldn't be cropped so tightly on top, but I'm surprised noone mentioned that.

I've posted a pic of the setup here ---I've taken the picture down to free up space---

LOL too funny! = ) Definitely an original take on transportation. Composition is good. The focus is a little off, but not by much. -8- Mav

I like how the shadows point towards the trail, it creates a feeling of discovery, as if the path is a new and untamed challenge. Nice work.
