This was taken in the kitchen, just randomly shot as I was going around the house testing out the new digital cam. I thought I would take the simplicity of the sponge in its' "habitat."

Technical: Most all images submitted fit the challenge, but this one doesn't say simplicity to me very loudly. Exposure composition focus lighting all good, the combination of the DOF, perspective and lighting all give it a certain "look" that is very interesting and almost rock video-ish.
Personal: I like the shot, but I don't identify it with the challenge theme.
Neat idea; love the color contrasts. I think it would be more dynamic without the curve at the top; really emphasizes the perspective and colors there, and ... much simpler!
IT had a bad focus, no? Why people in this challenge try to post only bad focused images? This are also relative to the theme? It reflects a simple way to operate the camera? Really I can“t answer this questions!
I love the contrast but I'm having a little problem finding a point of focus. And it appears to be a little grainy on the left side of the sponge... is this taken in a digital zoom?
