very nice shot - background & border match very well - only critique would be the lighting reflections -- most interesting to me are the comments so far - this being the week of the "insects" challenge and the broohaha about the spider entries, of the comments you have so far there are 5 that correctly identify the interloper as a rat while 7 misidentify it as a mouse - says something about how we should consider our audience and their perceptive skills when we choose our subjects
Still Life Gone Right you mean - it would have been bloody boring otherwise! I like this one, it makes a pleasant change to some of the unfunny set-up shots.
Very professional looking composition. Well conceived and composed. The only improvement would be to give it a little more contrast to make the objects stand out a little more.
My favorite so far... I'm sure you tried several takes before this one. I only wonder how this picture could look like with the mouse smelling the cheese, instead of the grapes. Also, I'm not sure if it's my monitor... but the scene seems a little bit rotated to the left (If you take a close look at the bottle of wine). Very good composition and color. I say 10.
Too bad the mouse wasn't sniffing the cheese instead of the grapes but this is great! Nice colors but could be just a bit clearer as far as the bottle of wine is concerned. Great idea! 10 from me.
Funny shot, would love to see the mouse eating the food and maybe an angled / blurred crop to suggest the photographer rushing to save the shot. This one still looks too staged for an 'oops', but points for humour and effort.
I like the idea but it might have been more of an "oops" if you had nibbled some of the cheese away, exposed some grape stems and tipped over the wine glass. That rat's a lot cleaner than the ones I usually see in our city :]
Finally -- a great shot! I don't think I've given out more than a 7 so far... :( This one is awesome, though! Great set-up, super colors, and a wonderful concept. 10 all the way!
