So sorry this got lost in translation. I think if it were truly a can of peas as most know them to be...it would have scored closer to a 5. Composition is good, as is the focus. The lighting is a bit harsh, natrual lighting might have had a better look. The image also seems to have a bit of a color cast to it...too much yellow I think.

Hope this helps.

In our country this is called "GULAR BAUNIR" or "YELLOW PEAS". This is the only peas I got so I made the best of it. Sorry it didnt go well with the recepy. But how did you like the photo?

How does this relate to peas?
08/21/2006 12:13:39 PM
Uh...what am I missing here? I don't see a pea in the pic, so it really does not fit this challenge. Whould have done much better with a can of peas instead of corn, but I am sure you are getting similar comments over and over :-(

Oh, I hate Euroshopper products.
08/20/2006 04:24:18 PM
peas, please.
08/20/2006 09:20:57 AM
I don't get the peas connection? Try not to use too harsh light on your model and cause the eyes to be dead. Eyes with a light reflecting makes a world of difference.

Where are the peas?
08/19/2006 12:29:25 PM
But, but... it's corn! :-(
08/19/2006 12:13:54 PM
I'm afraid that is a tin of sweetcorn. The photo is pretty good but it's DNMC.
08/19/2006 06:31:56 AM
Cute take on the challenge and her squinchy face is adorable. But I'm afraid those aren't peas.
08/18/2006 09:28:52 AM
too bad it's corn and not peas.....not sure this meets the challenge
08/17/2006 11:53:36 AM
That looks like a can of corn to me. sorry but DNMC but I will give you a 3 for the person being a"PEABRAIN" :)
08/15/2006 11:50:47 PM
Corn...not peas
08/15/2006 05:24:15 PM
cute. hope your dentist done see this
08/15/2006 05:04:29 PM
I'm sure you heard it before. No peas in the photo, well at least I can't see any.
08/15/2006 04:08:38 PM
Where are the peas?
08/15/2006 01:49:12 PM
Not only does it look like corn, but it says "corn" on the can. Decent idea, but a can of peas would've fit the challenge better.
08/15/2006 01:42:44 PM
mmmmk....

Alright...creative points?
08/15/2006 11:57:53 AM
Ummmm...did you mean to have her trying to open a can of Peas? You know, like in the challenge theme? Sorry if I'm missing any connection to the challenge here. Good luck.
08/15/2006 10:49:03 AM
I'm trying to understand why this is in the Peas! Challenge.
08/15/2006 10:22:43 AM
No peas in the picture. I think your score will suffer for that even if your intent was to be a bit out of the box. Overall the image is not too bad and I like her facial expression. It could use a little fill light on the right to tone down the shadow by the nose and mouth. You could have did a little burning to help brighten her teeth also.

Um, maybe you could have used a can of peas?
08/15/2006 09:08:52 AM
Where's the PEAS? Cute concept, though.
08/15/2006 08:45:05 AM
No pea's in the house for this shoot? Her dentist would tell you that you should have entered this photo into the Stupid Stupid Challenge, I bet it would have scored well. I do love the expression in her face and the lighting is nice.

lighting is too harsh and that's corn, not peas.
08/15/2006 06:48:43 AM
Is sweetcorn a member of the pea family? Cool, u learn something new everyday :)
08/15/2006 06:36:41 AM
Maybe a can of peas would have been better for a peas challenge? Not that that would make me cringe any less at the thought of breaking my teeth on a can. Ouch.
08/15/2006 05:49:29 AM
Uh, corn?
08/15/2006 04:40:42 AM
This is a cute picture, but the can should have been of peas - the green kind.
08/15/2006 04:29:00 AM
Where are the peas? This is a challenge for peas, you are showing a woman and a can of corn.
08/15/2006 04:21:12 AM
it's a PEAS challenge, not a SWEETCORN challenge...sorry :-(
