Nice perspective.

You went a little overboard on the sharpening/USM - remember that it can't make up for bad focus (I often have to tell myself that!) | B&W may have worked better here | A little vignetting would have helped focus the viewers attention | Lighting would have been nicer if the key was brought around 180 degrees & a light fill added where the main light source is right now (I know, you probably didn't have control over where the light was, but you could have moved the bag to coordinate with the light or used a trouble light -- anything!) | Perspective is flat, coming around & placing the camera so we were looking around it slightly would have brought more drama to the image.

Roz - I can't take credit for that saying as I read it somewhere here on DPC a while back. I think it was Dr, Achoo, but I'm not positive...)

I didn't vote in this one (overwhelming # of entries + I felt guilty about not entering one of our pets...) but it is a cute shot with a clever title. I'm learning that with this many entries, the voters tend to get pretty picky & will pick out anything to stop spitting 5s out - up OR down!

Very compelling | I wish you had managed to preserve some detail in the head scarf, though...

coffee with a "drop" of milk

An easy 10...

Glad I missed this challenge by a few seconds (my 2nd miss like that this week) - I shot nearly the same thing but yours definitely succeeded where mine failed! I really felt the pang of not having strobes or TTL flashes cause I couldn't get my aperture up with only 2 650 watt tungstens & a 250 watt halogen - my DOF was so shallow I had a hard time getting a drop in focus. It was my first ever attempt at stop-motion work & I obviously need a schooling in the technique...

Good luck!
