Quite pleased with how this came out and it's given me the itch to try more still life in a similar style. It was shot in my garden. The local cats were certainly impressed.

Good to see that one of my own faves placed highly. I think this was my only 10 for this challenge. (BTW, if you get a Grog comment, I've given at least a 7.)
oh, I like the fabric that you used...where ever did you get that...IMO you lost some of the detail (contrast) where your branch is...otherwise a great shot
This is an interesting image, a lot to see; I am not fond of the dead space in the center. 8 ---- visiting this comment again to rephrase (first sounds a little harsh). IMO, the portion in the center needs something to bring tie it together, otherwise you may miss something in this great image. Rescored - 9
Fish good when mammoth hunt is bad. Much better than Thag's tree bark casserole. Females and younglings can catch fish, too. Very safe. (Safe for females and younglings, but not for fish.)
I love the cheesecloth texture over everything, but it also sort of mushes everything together. Nothing really stands out. Still, the lighting and bg are really great.
