Composition - General composition of this photo is excellent. Nice pear and good water drops. The little gleam in the water drops really adds a nice element to this photo. The color of the pear is great. Its not to scarred up or anything and it makes it a little more interesting that being just plain green. I think the framing on this one would've helped to make this a little more successful photo. I don't like the dead on centered look and the landscape orientation. It would've looked better portrait. Even a little more headroom wouldn't hurt a thing. When I look at this, I feel like the pear should be favoring the left side of the frame so to bury the dark side and give some room to the bright side. Then I think, this photo was over 6.5, someone must know more than me because I didn't get that...
Technical - Stunning really. Very well taken with excellent lighting. Good color depiction, not much else to say.
Overall - This photo got a good score and deserved every bit of it. Take any advice I have to give with a grain of salt... Really, what do I know. But I'd be remiss if I had an opinion and didn't offer it, right wrong or otherwise. Good job with this photo. Bob
Ligting really helps to show off the great curved contour of the pear. Nice reflections in the water droplets. The black background really makes the shot pop out. "10"
It's during the voting when I see realisations of the challenge theme that I never would have thought about. Thank you. The water drops work beautifully with the light source. Lovely stuff. 8
