Kind of blurry.

It looks like the focus is in front of the tomato...I couldn't tell it was a tomato without the subject. The bright reflection and water? spots are distracting. I don't like the square composition either. Sorry.

The water droplets in the lower left look like they were the focus point for the camera. I think that tightening up the focus on the tomato and working on the framing would greatly improve this picture

Maybe a little too much hue and contrast

I wouldn't know this was a tomato except for the title. Out of focus, too much negative space.

Lighting's a bit harsh and focus seems off.

It could be a tomato, yet it appears to look more like a red gumball - to my untrained and non-vegetarian eyes. I also keep looking down at the water droplets. They draw my attention away from your main subject.

Nice tomato. He seems a little lonely out there in the middle of all that grey, though.

Lower left is in focus. Tomatoe is not unfortunately. Maybe intentional?

Focus!

If the tomato is your center of interest, it would work better in focus. I do like the selective desat. 4

nice idea but out of focus
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/21/2006 08:35:52 PM
awww, all the focus is on that drop in the lower left...too bad.

Maybe if there was another subject to emphasis the size of the tomatoe? =)
