wow, who'da thunk a globe artichoke could look this good? bet you're IreneM!even if you're not, 9 anyway for killer dof and definition and colur and motion capture.
Love the splash coming off this artichoke. The green subject on a green background is good - especially with invoking the idea of refreshing to the taste & sight senses and the firm thought of good fresh produce. You have some good details and sharp focus on the artichoke. The image is slightly above average but has the potential to move into the higher scoring territory. The biggest thing holding this back is lighting. There are a great many portions of this vegetable that are in shadow. If frontal lighting was evenly distributed across the artichoke (boy I hope that is what this is for it does look like it) then the viewer could visually appreciate the details & textures of this vegetable even more.
