 Well, I killed one of the models for my Still Life submission, so I decided to put him to good use in Rhythm. Stuck the tomatoes on a plate, took picture. Brightened yellow, desaturated, desaturated green. Crop, unsharp, save for web.

Would love to see this in color and the tomatoes precisely centered. Very nice idea and tons of potential but the B&W does not work for me.

Ohhh... I like this photo! Nice shot. Well set up, placed on the plate just right. I would have liked to see a little more contrast maybe, to get the plant to jump out a little more. But still, a very nice shot!! (8)

This is a cool idea and well executed, but I think it needs a bit of help in the processing. I would like the circle to be closer to white, and I think it needs more contrast.

i would have LOVED to see this in color, would have been much stronger i think, b&w conversion seems a little flat on this /5
