Greetings from the Critique Club: to begin with, this image obviously fit the challenge...it conjures up a smell, and a strong one at that. The image itself has some problems. To begin with I believe you have moved in too closely on your subject and lost focus. The overall color is quite drab and the shadows/reflections/noise on the curled back lid are very distracting. You might like to try the shot with some different lighting so that your image is cleaner/clearer and the overall effect more exciting. Better light would reduce many of the problems.

not focused

yuck, I\'m glad breakfast is still a few hours away...

This image is plagued by some focus issues, it might have helped to sharpen it. I like your composition and lighting is good.

totally out of focus! and the flash killed the rest of the shot.

Yes, stinky indeed. The picture is out of focus, though, and a bit dull--I would have liked this a lot with crisp detail and better lighting.

This is PERFECT for the challenge unfortunately it's too out of focus...

Very out of focus.

Oi vey. Great marks for meeting the challenge. Looks like the focus missed by just a bit though.

Focus seems soft

Seems to be out of focus. Nice take on the challenge though.

Yes they do stink, don't they? A good idea for the challenge but the shot leaves me wanting. It's too blurry and the border is a bit heavy for this shot. A 3

Great idea, and the only one in the challenge. Too bad it needs some focus.

focus, focus, focus - Try manual focus if you have one, if not try pulling the camera back and zoom in (using tripod)

I can almost taste the fish. Nice lighting and a simple arrangement.

Focus and exposure let this down. Stink has to do with odour, not aroma.
11/27/2003 10:52:35 AM
The idea is good. Focus & lighting need a bit of attention
11/27/2003 04:42:24 AM
Great, great idea. Sure evokes a smell in my mind. And the truth be told, I love them. Focus needs to be adjusted. Composition is very good.
11/26/2003 04:27:39 PM
Although I like sardines, your idea is good. Unfortunately the entire photo is out of focus.
11/26/2003 12:48:07 PM
What a smell... So strong that even the focus ran away!!!
11/26/2003 08:19:53 AM
Whoa! I'll never get that smell off the monitor!
11/26/2003 07:20:01 AM
focus appear to be off, or did it smell so bad you could consentrate.
11/26/2003 07:07:58 AM
Out of focus and too much noise. Sorry (2)
11/26/2003 05:21:14 AM
I actually think it's a good idea, and the composition isn't bad, but the subject has to be in focus.
11/25/2003 10:19:12 PM
Focus could be crisper.
