I too thought that this would get the big one! Great shot!

Dang -- looks like I'll be eating shoe! I still insist that this should have been a top 3 -- excellent work!

There's just something weird and off-putting about this photo. Her mouth is a strange shape. The crop just seems too tight for me to make sense of the shapes... I can see what everything is, but nothing seems quite right.

Someone else who looked at this over my shoulder suggested that if the lips were covering the teeth, the photo would work better, and agree. The teeth are a distraction.

Excellent shot. Perfect stock photo. 10.

I like this. Some parts seem out of focus slightly, and I think that even if this was done purposly, it would look better if it were all sharp. The plain bright white background would work very well for stock photography, adding more impact to the subject of the photo itself.

A redder strawberry would be better to match the lipstick, but still pretty good.

Such a great shot, super color. I only wish there was a little more light on the end of the strawberry in the mouth.

Nice, but the hair on the upper lip killed it for me.

This is great! I can imagine this being used in various ways as stock. Great composition, and colours, slightly cliche but I think that this would sell.

Very good closeup showing lots of detail. Maybeeeeee too much...lol There are some black specks on the model's upper lip. With this type of closeup the details need to be meticulous. Your model was well chosen for her pearly whites. and the red of the berry, and her lips contrast beautifully.
Overall a good image.

Everything is vibrant in the photo except for the strawberry. I heard one person say that they used a common flash light to illuminate a subject. Be fun to try it on this I would think.

Man, she has some white teeth now. Great picture. I would love to see more of the color in the strawberry. Good luck.

definitely a good example of stock photography
02/25/2003 08:19:33 AM
very nice shot... I think this makes a great stock photo... the detail is excellent... - setzler

Almost really good. Photo quality is really really good. The only thing I have to say about this is, and don't take this the wrong way, straighter teeth would've made this image a 9 or 10.
02/25/2003 12:31:08 AM
Good shot. How many strawberries had to sacrifice their lives for this shot?
02/24/2003 11:12:21 PM
You overdid the sharpening in this image. Not a very original idea, but nicely done anyway.7
02/24/2003 04:00:04 PM
Wonderful....really nice work.

Works extremely well in the spirit of a stock photography competition! Supurb! If this isn't in the top 3, I'll eat my shoes. - 10

Nice focus and colors, especially on the strawberry. the dark above-upper-lip area is a bit distracting, almost appears that the subject is growing a mustache. Edges of the fingers are indistinct. Overall, though, nice work.

them are some white teeefers!!! awesome shot 10
02/24/2003 11:04:41 AM
seems to need more light - the berry in particular is really dark
