Definately one of my favorites in this challenge and so wished it scored much higher.....
Again I love the warm dark colors and with this one it works beautifully.
A great composition and a great image here IMO.....

Ahhh, another nice kitchen. The angle reminds me of one trying to get a shot into a Southern Living mag or something. Nice use of lighting!

I have kitchen envy too! I love how you used those beautiful cabinets to add richness to the pot rack!

I can see the kitchen envy! I don't cook so I don't share that envy but I do like the way the pots and pans are displayed like this. Better lighting might have helped but very few kitchens have professional lighting set up for photography. :-)

Nice perspective choice, but the lighting is uneven. Suggest maybe try again with the same perspective but at a different position?

Nice composition, rated 3 because of distracting shadows and poor lighting

Good exposure on the pots but the background is way too dark for my liking

Good colour, but blurry (particularly the plant hanging with the pots).

This challenge clearly meets the challenge but the lighting and cropping on this image need some more work - the lighting appears to be on the corner cabinet door at the bottom of the image and the neat pans and pots are not as highlighted as they could be. I would have recommended reshooting this focusing on the pots and pans and getting some good light on them to bring out some nice detail and contrast to the image. 5
