LOL! Fantastic. Really brings a smile to my face : )
I really like the tracks, very nicely done, and the DoF with the focus on the yellow m&m ensures it meets the challenge. Lighting is spot on, giving a never-ending snowfield effect and nice shadows.
Great work, can't resist giving it a 10.
yes the mm is yellow, but the color is not dominant enough for this weeks theme... even out of focus, taz seems to be the dominant subject... however I can see that you inended shallow DoF and you did acheieve that to the T. nice job
With this DOF you should not have had a shadow and dark spot on the yellow M&M. There's so little of it as there is. Like the composition. Very different. To me with the effect of putting one in the mouth the entire photo should have been in focus and make that the one that is yellow. To me personally that makes the most sense. But then, that's just my thought. Still nice idea. Just needs better execution.
I love this. It tells a story. Regardless of what anybody saays this could not have worked without the shallow depth of field and the low lighting. Congratulations on a very unique idea and a terrific image. (9)
Should have zoomed in on the yellow m&m from a lower angle and with more light on it. That would have been pretty cool. As it is, you can't really what the subject is. :(
