Too common, but interesting dof

Now this one's got the controversy I like. Reminds me of what I like to do. A great idea, but I think the setup's not so good. The reflection is too strong, the angle too flat, the tip of the lower stick is out of focus. I do like the textures of the paper and the sticks.

Nice detail and focus. I like the light falling in the center of the toothpicks and the subtle texture of the surface.

Nice creativity. The glare is unfortunate, it detracts from an picture with a lot of potential and good, interesting composition. More evenly spread lighting and I'd vote this higher.

Nice lighting, nice idea, nice toothpicks, nice focus, well framed, good point of view. Yet something very important is missing
 12/05/2004 01:49:43 PM
very clever, but hte lighting is much too harsh
 12/04/2004 03:59:12 PM
Clever concept.Good lighting.
 12/04/2004 06:33:47 AM
Good work with colors and light source. Well done.
 12/03/2004 08:16:56 PM
Very interesting and creative. Thought provoking. Lighting is interesting also. Wish your DOF caught that front toothpick in focus.
 12/03/2004 07:42:27 PM
Very clever thinking. I like the colour of the toothpicks. I would suggest more space at the top and to the left.
 12/02/2004 03:44:17 PM
clever! Nicely done, as well.
 12/02/2004 03:08:25 PM
very clever :)
 12/01/2004 09:18:16 PM
Clever idea...light reflection seems a tad too bright.
 12/01/2004 08:26:51 PM
"To be or not to be". I like it.
 12/01/2004 08:03:36 PM
good idea.
I don't like the "glare" in the middle of the photo, or spotlight og whatever it is.
 12/01/2004 04:53:54 PM
Very nice.
 12/01/2004 02:53:06 PM
creative. like the concept. nice poke at some creative lighting too, though that hot spot on the paper bugs me a bit. still a very nice entry, one of my top 3 so far.
 12/01/2004 10:53:54 AM
nice try, but the hotspot is too harsh in the center
 12/01/2004 10:26:05 AM
Love the title, the concept and the question. Answer: None of the above! This one gets a 10.
 12/01/2004 10:21:13 AM
interesting idea. i dont like the hot point in the middle though. 6
12/01/2004 06:29:08 AM
That reminds me of a joke:
Q. Why is 6 afraid of 7?
A. Because 7, 8, 9 (seven ate nine)
 12/01/2004 03:06:07 AM
nice light and texture.
 12/01/2004 02:57:20 AM
Why is 8 afraid of 7? Because 7 ate 9. ( speak it aloud). It's late here, I'm getting punchy.
 12/01/2004 02:09:09 AM
I like the lighting and the composition is good. Nice shot! 8
 12/01/2004 12:53:55 AM
Neither, I give it a 5. Nice average picture. A little too dark for my taste.
 12/01/2004 12:13:38 AM
very clever
