Milky Bath

Nice high-key shot -- excellent idea and composition. First, not a voter -- so you can take these comments for what you will. Have you considered completely desaturating this to B&W, then making your shadows just a tad darker (bringing your shadow level just to the point where the histogram barely shows any shadows), and your midtones just a bit lighter (that one's just a taste thing)? The level settings in PS that I was looking at were 32, 1.5, and 255. Just a suggestion based on my own personal taste. Now going to delete your image from my PS file. ;-) Good luck.

Got Milk?

Ripping off your own stuff, huh? Tsk, tsk, tsk. *grin* Nice spread on the milk and the color on the snow is a great complement to the color in the sky. Similar kinds of "nits" to my comment on the last one -- I just don't like where the lines in the background are cutting through your subject. The far mountains are a little too in line with his head and the open space behind him almost "cuts off his head." Silly little things. And since I'm not voting, take them for what they are -- comments of a deranged mind.

Then bring friends around it.

This is a great shot. Pure and simple. Three things about it, however, bother me -- one is relatively stupid and can be ignored, another is probably just an overactive imagination (and is actually a compliment), and the third I'm not entirely certain what more you could have done to minimize. First, the cheese on the cheese board/tray look a little too symmetricaly laid out. Like I said, dumb, but there ya go. Second, something about the shot makes me feel like it was literally taken from a magazine. I think it has something to do with the colors. If it was, shame on you. If it wasn't, then congratulations and well done. *grin* Finally, the far background is a little distracting because my eyes are led around the picture and objects seem to keep leading me up to it. I start down with the cheeses, move up to the bread and knife, over to the wine and glass and then over to that empty spot of table and background. Then I start looking around back there to see what I can see. Perhaps a slightly more shallow depth of field to blur that out a bit -- coupled with perhaps a bit more light to darken it down a tad? At any rate, know that I'm not a voter, so you can take the comments for what they're worth.

I dig the concept and the lighting. My "nit" is that the back of the glass is not as evenly "frosted" as the front appears to be -- lots of little nicks for one, and then just not as smoothly "frosted" either -- almost as if it's got fingerprints or something that were then frosted over. I'm not explaing myself well. Still one of my more favorite shots...

Makes me think of a stock photography shot -- which is not a bad thing. Nice sense of motion by shooting at the angle you used. Wondering how hammered you'r getting for not using any actual dairy in the shot but just alluding to it. Works for me, but then I'm not a voter so....

Totally a personal preference: I think I would have tried to get the background a more pure white. I like the form and simplicity and sense of action in the shot. I have to admit, I can't figure out exactly what it is, but that's not stopping me from likiing it.

Funny idea, well composed, but I'm not certain that the dramatic lighting helps you out here. I think that the vibrant colors of the cheese in contrast to the darker/starker mouse would have been contrast enough. I think I would have liked to see it evenly lighted to the same level as the upper left corner -- with perhaps some shadow contributed by the mouse itself.

Got Milk!

Comment:
A really great idea that works as a parody of the "Got Milk?" campaign. Whille I recognize how difficult the shot probably was to get, I could wish for a slightly cleaner composition. I hesitate to point out the pixellated quality of the shot since I'm sure you know about it and Im doubly sure others will point it out. Cropped from a larger image? You might have tried presenting a slightly smaller image to minimize this problem.

Nice clean whites, the border is a good addition that helps support the red of the petal. It looks like there is some good detail in the petal, but I wish the photo was larger so I could see some more of that detail.

I guess I just don't feel like Moebius strips count as illusions
