Great photo- but doesn't quite convey before and after to me.

I LOVE IT! Wow, what perfect timing. I'm wondering how many tries it took to get this? Right after the balloon broke, but before the water could accelerate out of shape. Creativity, execution, even the simple orange frame. 10 from me. Well done!

Pomum Granatus

Yum! Great shot of the poms. I think because the pom is so dark, a lighter background could have helped the color pop more, but other than that, well executed and set up shot.

Why are pretzels so tasty and why do they crumble so much?

Simple shot, but very well done. Don't have much to say, and I guess this is just nitpicky, but it feels just a tad off balance to me since it's essentially a "3 pretzel shot" - My eyes want to see the center pretzel in the center of the shot- so it feels a bit unbalanced to me... but once again, that's just nitpicky. Very nice.

Nice. Great detail on the brown leaf. I think just getting a little more in focus on the green leaf could go a long way, but that's a personal opinion I guess. Nice idea and nice shot.

To Make an Omelet...

Great minds think alike. I almost did the same thing. Glad I didn't! This is well executed... I love the lighting, it's full, but still leaves shadow for the dramatic feel. My favorite is the way the texture comes through on the egg shells. Well Done.

Half Done

Very creative!. I think you could have gone with an even tighter crop- the empty space of the forehead is not really needed and doesn't add anything to the shot. A tighter crop might help bring the eyes out more. I also think the left eye came out quite clean, but the focus on the right eye looks softer (even on the reflection). I'd love for this to be almost completely symmetrical/identical on both sides except for the makeup- that would make the difference stand out more.

Great set up and great blurred background. I like it a lot. The weird crack in the sharpened pencil is a bit distracting, as is the bottom of the cone? of the sharpened pencil (where the the green bumps up, right by the crack). I don't know if you left that in on purpose, but I may have rotated the pencil to get that out of the shot. Photo technique wise, great!!!!

First of all- that looks delicious- R.PB cups are my fave!!!

I really like this picture a lot- well lit, framed, and especially well set up... I like the crumbles on top of the cups. I do wish the DOF was deeper. I don't mind the backs of the lower cups being out of focus, but I think I would prefer the back of the top cup to be in focus... personal opinion. Overall great shot!
