very nice but the peas look a bit over exposed
I like the concept though

Very nice, good use of negative space. Also, not putting your subject in the centre works well. Seems a tiny wee bit bright, but I do really like this! 10

I had this idea but couldin't have pulled it off as well as you did. Nicely composed, great color.

Very simplistic but it works... one of my favourites in this challenge because of an original idea and composition.
02/04/2004 01:41:54 PM
Very good idea, love the fact that the shot is simple and on a white background
02/03/2004 05:36:49 PM
The white background is ltlle too stark for my taste.
02/03/2004 02:51:40 PM
I like it a lot. Strength in simplicity. Would be my choice for second.

Though your shot is crisp with great color, I would like to see a bit less negative space.
02/03/2004 05:28:28 AM
Simple and effective, good color and light. I feel that a "third" would have made a more dynamic composition, but nevertheless, this shot really stands out.

Simple...beautiful!
02/02/2004 08:08:56 PM
very clean. simple elegant and the idea is well presented
02/02/2004 07:02:45 PM
Nice work, maybe a bit heavy on the filters, but no doubt this is done well.
02/02/2004 06:48:16 PM
I almost did this one too, nice execution.
02/02/2004 06:05:48 PM
like the shot...not sure about the negative space..little too much white ...nice shot though
02/02/2004 12:30:54 PM
The peas look like a painting. The whole shot is very bright (i like bright colors).

Greate no, not great ... I mean PERFECT picture ... and you know that perfect is best so that must mean 10 ;)
02/02/2004 11:19:42 AM
I think a little bit tighter crop would look better, not much, maybe a touch off the top and right side. I love the picture though! Great color and contrast. There just seems like a little too much space for my eye to investigate. Good luck!!

nice use of white space. I had the same idea go through my head but had no subject to work with at the time ;) you did a great job.
02/02/2004 06:29:21 AM
So simple and so effective
02/02/2004 04:55:22 AM
Composition within the empty frame works well, could see this used in an advertisement. Nicely done!
02/02/2004 02:34:05 AM
Beutifull, just squeeses under my radar for fitting the mandate and slots right into a 10
02/02/2004 02:22:35 AM
Nice take on the challenge theme. I like the space concept here. The peas are all tightly bunched up, so you've given a lot of white to balance. Nice. The peas, though, look a bit plasticky. 8

Sharp focus and details. Great color of the peas and of the pod. I like the lighting although it seems a bit bright for my tastes. One minor detail I would have like to see fixed is the shadow of the pods. Looks like this was taken on a bedsheet as I see texture in the details. Perhaps you could have cloned out the lines to make a smooth shadow. Also, I think a little could have been cropped off the top but it's an excellent picture nonetheless and great use of negative space. 8.

I like the effect.
