Great composition, Terry. I really like the various geometric shapes, textures, and the reflection. Once again a very creative image of an ordinary item.

Makes me smile! A very fun and kicky shot - works for bread AND reflections (two for the price of one!) LOVE the counter and brickwork - great, fun background. Is this your kitchen?

This was just different. I like the image because I don't know what to make of it first. After looking at it for a couple minutes I still don't know what to make of it. 8

i am sure i wont be the only one to say, having the same "dotted" background would have helped the shot a lot. i understand that would have been particularly difficult to do with the reflection in the toaster though. nice try.

Interesting use of super-busy background to isolate your rather plain-looking subjects -- nice.

You know the real star of the show here is the fabric with the circles. Good job at eliminating the camera's reflection. Interesting choice on the cord. In all, this is a pretty fun and funky shot.

very 70s. Not sure about the carpet and brick wall though...

In spite of the busy surface and the toaster's clear reflection of it, the eye wants to be drawn to the bread, which is slightly out of focus. Still, very nice.

I'm pondering on this one....the colors are brillliant, but they distract from your subject; the bread. Those are great reflections; too bad you coldn't have entered it in the "Reflection" challenge.

The background is too busy for me but I love that toaster. Awesome reflection. I'm thinking a long line of bread waiting to be toasted. Great concept.

What a cool looking photo. The spotted fabric, the plug and the reflection, the brick wall. Everything works together beautifully.

Great composition! I like the way the toaster tricks the eye.

This feels cluttered... You chose the setting carefully, providing something for the so shiny toaster to reflect, but I think it looks a bit untidy

Very busy photo. I like the relections in the toaster but my eye jumps around and has trouble focusing on the subject.
