I'm not sure if this was shot w./ a lensbaby or it was just blurred in PS, but I like it a lot. It really places emphasis on the colors, which works well.

Well lit. the lighting gives a very natural feel to the shot. I think the DOF is actually useful here.

everything about this comp is fantastic, except the border, IMO. Well done. Visually stunning. Takes my breath away. I'd love to see the statistics on young vegetables we lose to lung cancer. I'm sure the numbers are staggering. Well done!

I like this composition. The dynamic lighting creates an atmosphere, illuminating the subject of the photo and giving it a great focal point, at the same time, casting some wicked shadows. It almost tells one part of a story, and begs to be told the rest. Great effect. The wooden spoon that has been dipped in the sauce really helps this backstory. As if someone had been cooking and had to walk away. This is definitely a "picture is worth 1000 words" moment for me. Well done.

Nice DOF. Too many of the images in this competition were just too busy. I like this comp for it's simplicity and elegance. It's well lit, and the background tones don't dominate, but rather compliment the subject well. Well done.

There are elements of this comp that I like alot, including the lighting and the framing. The subject, however seems to me to be a little out of focus, though. Not a bad effort, though.

It's a rather bland composition, IMO. There's not much here to attract the eye, or cause a viewer to go hmm.
