The unique lighting total makes the picture. I'm kinda partial to liking it because I love watermelon, but I think most would agree with me that it's quite an appetizing shot.

Perhaps a different crop would make it stronger, but the crop you chose is certianly more interesting than if you had included the whole sign in the frame, as most wouldn't think to do otherwise.

The Ever-Elusive Albino Squirrel

What a cute little fellow! He makes you just want to hold out a bit of treat in an outstreched hand and coax him on down the tree to be a fuzzy little friend. I'd never seen an albino squirrel before, but back in my dorm-days there were a whole bunch of (quite fat!) squirrels that loved to hang around the cafeteria doors and eat offerings straight out of students' hands. We'd often snatch an extra cookie or ice cream cone or the like on the way past the dessert table in order to have a decent present to place in their little outstreched faces. Those campus squirrels must have had the highest cholesterol in all of Louisiana! Anyway, thanks for sharing such a unique shot. That dear little face brought back pleasant memories--always my favorite kind of pictures!

Awesome title. I wonder how many non-lit people are out there scratching there heads and saying, "I don't get the title. Can't even spell 'tiger.' Must be dumb. I'll score it crappily." I hope thery're few. Cute shot, and as I said, great title.

Not sure why, but I'm not exra-fond of the crop. I do, however, love the texture.

The choice of a plain white cup was a good one, as it kept the image uncluttered.

I had a similar idea, but not with that book. I gave up, though, because by typewriter isn't as photogenic. I wish my efforts had turned out more like yours. By the way, that's an excellent book.

Nature's Grandeur

That's breathtaking. I mean, the Grand Canyon (I'm assuming the photo is of that), is gorgeous. but so many photographs of it are pretty, yes, but so cliche. They all seem to be taken while standing on one cliff, with another cliff off about a football field away as the subject, and then the opposite side of the canyon making the background.
Your photo is different because it adds in a foreground. Throwing in that new element totally puts this head and shoulders above your regular pretty canyon shot. Well done!
