This is very creative...love the reflection of the pencil/tutu on the wood. i wish the backdrop were plain black instead of textured...it would add to the 'stageness' of the photo. Great job!
This photo scores very high with me on the creativity scale. The lighting and the reflection on the wood surface really make this photo stand out nicely :) The composition is also very impressive... you have me wondering how you still the pencil up like this... great shot :) = 9 - jmsetzler
Very cute. The photo is a little dark for my taste, but I know you did it to emphasize the light on the pencil's tutu. It has great effect, but I think it would have been more powerful if the light didn't spill onto the curtain to the left of the pencil. It looks great spilling onto the curtain behind the pencil, but for some reason, that other little spot of light is distracting. I love how you tied the ribbon on to represent the pencils slippers. Very creative. Good luck in the challenge.
I love a good pun..................the reflection is an added bonus...............interesting photo...............well balanced and great lighting.......... hope you win with this one!!
Cute! I love the reflection in the polished floor. I think this also benefits from the non centred composition. I don't like the "stage curtain" texture (but please don't think I am insulting your house interiors!). 5, Kavey
I hope everybody gets en pointe of the ballet connection – it’s funny, the idea of a pencil in a tutu is superb. Wit aside, it’s one thing to have a good idea, another to make it a good shot… You have excelled yourself in that area as well. This is an easy 10, I can’t fault the shot… Good luck, I hope this does as well as your imagination deserves…
CUTE! Where DO these ideas come from? I would like it better if there were a clearer reflection of the subject at the bottom... maybe a black reflective surface here?
Good title (hope everybody gets it). The picture is silly and actually quite meaningless but fun. I find the tablecloth acting as the background a little too heavy and overwhelming. A black solid background would have worked better I think. Also find the reflection of the pencil and tutu a bit too much. Did you consider cropping just below the point? Fun idea though.
