Melon Innards

I hate melons, but this is a very beautiful photograph. I like the use of a mirror, and the lighting looks good to me. It works well under the challenge and the more I look at it, the more I like it. I even find the border ties the image together instead of detracting for me. I started with a 7 vote on this but I'm moving it to a 9 - it really has grown on me.

A rare privilege

Interesting choice! I like the composition, the rich color of the wine is beautiful and the way the lighting is set so it highlights the date is perfect. I'm assuming that was purposeful. :) I even like the dusty quality of the bottle, helps tie in the 'exposed' aspect of the photo. 7

Coming Out

Nice photo, the subject in general is a little over-done, but the inherent interest due to the color and design of the flowers makes the photo stand out. I also like the balanced aspect of it with the furled and unfurled flowers. Nice Job! 7

A Chilling Rememberance

Very much light the coloring of the photo. Normally however, the very white (blown out I think its called?) area would be very distracting to me, but with the richness in color and the very metallic look of the composition, I think it works - it wouldn't hurt if it were a little less glaring though. All in all, an excellent submission. 7

Good capture! Fits the challenge, nice composition and I like the random sunlight - brightens up the picture just enough. Solid. 7

Marvelous! I love the composition, the earthy tones are very nice plus the subject is interesting. The lighting is perfect in my opinion and it fits the challenge very well. I couldn't find anything I didn't like. 10

Pomegranate - Punica Granatum
by JC_Homola

Comment:
I really like the vividness of the photo, though I do wish the entire pomegranate was in the shot. Definitely fits the challenge, has nice lighting, a little soft on the focus where the skin is covering some of the seeds, but its still a very nice photo. 8

Fall in the city

I do like the color of the leaves against the building in general but I didn't find the photo as a whole to really draw and keep my attention. I do like the fact that the building is in more focus than the leaves, since the challenge is based on buildings. Gave a 5
