The piece of rotting fruit peeking from behind the camera seems a little distracting. Not sure the other bits of fruit really add much to the photo.

Need more light to get details onto the device.

Did it fall from the tree ? too much wasted space in the shot and too many elements not adding to the shot .

Love the rotten fruit placed around this (& the fact that the camera's lying on the floor) - this really emphasizes the challenge's theme.

Not an eyecatcher (sorry).

Composing an image is nearly as important as shooting in focus. I think the composition needs work. Do many different set ups and take a lot of still lifes such as this one, to see which one really demands you use it compositionally.

What'swith the fruit in this image? I don't get it, sorry. Also lighting and background just don't work for me. Maybe a closeup of the front of the camera would have worked better IMHO.

did it fall from the apple tree?

The camera alone would have been great. As it is, there is too much going on to distract.

Hey, pick that thing up. You can sell it on ebay!

you need to focus on your subjects, not the dirt. Could give a little more light on the camera cover.

I don't really get the purpose of the rotten fruit.

after some painflu staring, i have come to the conclusion it is a camera! On your deck out back...deck is abit bright, camera a bit dark. too much dynamic range here. The fruit bits...i have no clue. the one is behind the camera...why? the pic has a haze to it as well, the fruit is not vibrant, but washed out in color.

Strange still life - I feel that it would be more effective if you decided on a single subject: 4
06/29/2005 10:21:32 AM
Nice colours, rather strange composition IMO
06/29/2005 10:16:21 AM
Seems too staged for my taste. The light is too harsh as well.... so sorry.

The composition is weak but the subject is good. Trying to fit too much into one shot.
