Composition - quite good Technical Aspects - quite good Meets Challenge - yes Visual Impact / Originality – quite high Other suggestions – crop out a little more bowl on the bottom 7 Jim msp
Nice refractions of light in the crystal, and good use of negative space, heheh. I think its a very nice photo, but the tomato could be in better focus I think. It seems a bit blurred to me. 7 Konador
cool. i dig the framing---and the awesome lighting. i love the way the crystal pics up the reflection of the tomato--really adds depth to the shot. 9--amitchell
would have liked most of your crystal cropped out...would have strengthened your image. needed to capture all of the tomato greenery in focus, as it is what keeps the eye traveling through space. good asymmetrical placement. (6) ~mcmurma
There are a number of forums running at the moment that ask what is, and how to use, negative space – just point them at your picture; after the voting of course :o) It's a great example (and there are a few in this challenge) of how to use it effectively. The shot is very inventive and it's a wonderful use of lighting and composition… (10) After the challenge, I'd love to know if this picture is related to another shot using a similar (or same) glass receptacle?
