This is my very first homemade bread loaf on my new cooking stone. I really need to clean my oven. I dropped a cookie dough ball on the window a couple nights before I made this bread, and I clearly (or not so clearly) forgot to clean the cookie off the window.
I'm going through the entries, stopping at those images I feel have had the benefit of an unconventional eye and dwelling a little longer to try to see and appreciate what you saw. This is one of those images.
Positives: This is a grower! Bumped it a couple of times now. The 'through mesh' appearance is effective and gives a slightly furtive look that I am always fond of. Despite the low contrast, I like how the crusty texture of the bread is still well communicated. I also like the restraint in relation to the light here. I'm a fan of the vignette too.
Critical stuff: I think there is only so far you can go with an image like this - in the end, you can only wring out some much interest.
Overall: A shot that I have come to like after a few viewings - perhaps a problem when there are as many images as there are in a FS to get through.
