A tribute to whiterook who mysteriously disappeared from DPC after the "Fruits and Vegetables II" challenge. I hear he'll be back in a month or two, but have no clue as to why he's been put in the DPC icebox. I thought I'd go looking for him, but though I found fruits and vegetables and several other chess pieces in there, he wasn't to be found in my icebox.

This is tragic. You were outbrowned by a newbie with natural talent. For what it's worth, I don't think my 10 counted since your picture was the only one I voted on. :D
Odd. Out of focus. If you wanted to do something with the chess pieces in the ice tray, then focus on that as your subject. As it is, it's just clutter.
mmmmmmmmmm sorry but this has to be the worst shot here, what are you trying to convey, the lighting is poor, focus poor, grain/noise poor, i think you need to head back to the drawing board with this shot and try harder
Sorry to say but there is a lot to be done here to make this a better photograph.
Including in Basic editing is:
Levels, this can take the grayness away.
NeatImage, this can smoothen the image.
'Sic Vegetables' is totally right - Great crop. Gotta be Whiterook would be my guess. It's perfectly awful and the Chess pieces are classic. I don't vote lower then 4...sorry. Now close the freezer door...then fruits are startin' to thaw! Take care...
I think you could have made this with a little more contrast or shadow to bring out the chess pieces more. They seem to recede into the picture instead of being a main focal point. I am not sure HOW I would have done this picture in as small of a space as a freezer, but maybe without the full wattage of the fridge light and maybe a small spot on the chess pieces.... I don't know. I like the idea of the shot... just a litle too washed out for my tastes. Nice thought though!
I'm not sure what to make of this. Chess pieces in the ice cube tray...might be a decent idea if the photo were just focused on that. As it is, it just seems kind of random. Also, the image is not very sharp.
