I admit I don't understand the title, but I think it's a wonderful photo anyway. Excellent lighting and a good composition. The DOF is very well chosen. One of my favourite photos this week. -stephan
I would say the lighting is what makes this shot stand out among the macro crowd. I love the composition. If the DOF were not _so_ narrow, it might be even better.
Very nicely done! (I was going to do something like this, cept that the single ear of corn I purchased was awful...wouldn't even feed it to the dogs...lol). What really captures my eye is the dof, especially the top right corner...almost as if the corn is burning or melting at the top. Great color and composition. At first I rated this a 9, but now a 10 (people say I'm a pushover, but there has to be some of us lol) Great Work Ruthann
A second viewing has raised my opinion of this photo. The kernals are very clear and distinct, the "hair" is just plain great! Nice touch. At first, I didn't like the glare on the kernals, but after thinking about it, it works for me. Score raised from 7 to 9. Swash
Even tho it strictly isn't a fruit ot veg, I'll still vote on it as if it were. I like the low DOF to make only the middle in focus. Good use of a black background aswell. Very nice lighting. 8 Konador
I hope the rude comment regarding your corn on the forum didn't upset you. It's a lovely composition..the colors are great. I grew up on corn and it was always a vegetable to us. Keep up the good work (7)
Technically excellent. Bumping this one up for the photographic value. I like how the lighting and focus fade away from the center. Nice Job! ~indigo997
Wonderful macro shot...I have done dozens of lifestyle ads in my work and this is the kind of shot I like to use...a littel more depth of field on the lighted part of the corn (maybe 5%) would have made this perfect..still..beautiful..9..hokie
This is absolutely beautiful... I love the soft lighting and I also love the way each kernel of corn across the top has a nice light reflection in it... the shallow depth of field also adds a very nice touch to this photo. Great macro work... = 10 - jmsetzler
Composition: Subject Placement, Cropping, Background good, Technical: Focus, Exposure: out of focus and soft may be you intended this Appeal: good idea but hasn't quite worked Total Averaged Rating 6. sulamk
Ok, this will sound corny (no pun intended) but the lighting of this and the composition has a really romantic feeling to it. It is a sharp enough focus to be clear, but still has a softness about it. great work. karmat
