Now how am I gonna knock a shot that used q-tips. Not sure what you were talking about with the greenish feel. The colors are good, overall focus is good. Great basis to continue on in pp. Technically I think the shot is well done - very well considering there is no pp. Good framing of your models and all. The interest factor is a bit low though IMO, and I think that mayeb a different color background could have helped them pop a bit more. |

I gave this a 7 in voting. I thought it was interesting with very nice flattering colors. The one distraction I had with this, is since it's such a tight macro you maybe should have pushed up on the swab tips to get rid of the "flyaway" cotton hairs. |

| I am not sure what to say in this challenge. Since PP is not allowed, there is not much to critique. The focus seems a bit soft to me...with the outer portions of the shafts and the cotton a bit out of focus...along with the shafts in the last couple of swabs on the right. Lighting seems a bit flat, with very little shadow. On the other hand, perhaps that is exactly what you wanted. |

Pretty good score for cotton swabs, but then again, Tim ribboned with 'em, so go figure!
It came out pretty sharp and I'd say the colors are pretty good, except I'd have gone with a different background color - it does seem a bit bland of a color. Very good in-camera framing with good lines/balance. |

| Cool idea, but I think the color of the background detracts somewhat from the vibrancy of the swabs. I'm not sure what color would be better, though... |

Not bad.
Doesn't really interest me at all but it's a well taken shot. |
