| The idea is good, focus could be crisper and the background cloth lets this down. |

| The pie has great color and texture; it would make a great center of interest. But the bowl holding the pecans, being larger and darker, steals it away. Having them spread on the table beside the pie would make them a vital but non-distracting element. Add a few more elements (perhaps some eggs and a pie server) and choose a more interesting background and you'd have the makings of a great still life. |

| Why does this make me hungry? Looks delicious, however the bowl od pecans appeard larger than the pie, and I think it's the pie you're stressing. Peehaps if the pie were closer and the bowl behind it, perhaps cropped a little might be more powerful. (Did I say the pie makes me hungry? Nice pic!) |

| The bg has a blue cast. The pie looks very good, and is one of my favorites, so my mouth is watering. It really needs a different bg. |

| The light is very harsh and the colors seem faded. The composition could use some work as well. Maybe use a different angle and add more elements to the composition. These things might help some. |

| When you decided that this subject would be your choice for the “Still Life” challenge, how many different photos did you make to try to find the best perspective? How many different lighting options did you try to see how light changes could change the mood of the photo? I believe that some considerations of these elements could have helped you create a higher impact photo. |

the blue sheet underneath looks bad with wrinkles in it
this is not in focus properly, and there should be better lighting, it looks too plain

| A better background color would have made this better to me. If feels washed out. Also, maybe putting the pie in the upper part of the image and spreading the pecans around it would have been more attractive? |

| I love pecans, but these look a little over exposed. I might have tried darkening the photo a little. Also might have tried taking a handful of nuts and placed them lightly on the back edge of the pie, and then used a lower angle, and side lighting. |

| Yes it is. My Dad loves this stuff, not for me though :) As for the shot, it really leaves me wanting. The contrast is really dull and the colors just don't do anything for me. Maybe a black background and the pie surrounded by the pecans would make it work better? A 3 |

| a bit of contrast would help. |

| I think this could've been more interesting with better lighting. The colors are good, but the subject would look better if it were sharper. |
