One of the many bins of vegetables at the open markets and shops along Commercial Drive in Vancouver. Its a very "earthy" community down there, and so I think these imperfect bell peppers are not unacceptable. As Joni Mitchell said "hey farmer farmer put away your DDT, I don't care about spots on my apples, but leave me the birds and the bees.."

The mix of colors, clarity and technical quality should have placed it MUCH higher. I see you got nixed for the stickers. I thought they and the other vegetable imperfections added overall interest to the image.
I like all but the labels. I realize you probably grabbed this shot at a market and might have been reluctant to rearrange them. Tehehehe....I've done it. But I also got asked to stop taking pics in the store. :-(
Overall good job!
one thing I would have done, was to turn the peppers over that have stickers.. otherwise an interesting shot.. very colorful, and off the beaten path of photographing "perfection"
