Nice set up. I liek the contrasting colors. One of my favorites.

a different color background might have been better, so that the small bits of the candy would show up better

I really like this image and idea for the challenge. I only wish it was on a darker background so the whites of the candy didn't get washed out. I love the sprig of peppermint also. Excellent composition.

I think I'd have preferred a contrasting background.

This is a scent that brings back a lot of memories. Great idea to crush the candy. Nicely done!

I really like this shot. I think it leans alittle more to the taste than the smell, but so did mine ;) 8

Clean, simple, nice diagonal, great colors, and sharp. Although this is a relatively simple image it is well done right down to the crushed pieces and leaf. I gave this a 10. Nice work.

creative example of the scent of Christmas

Nice shot. Great use of light in the studio. Love the touch of the peppermint leaves. Seasonal colors. Nice DOF. Small red border helps frame the image so the white doesn't overpower it to much. 8

DOF and lighting highlights an issue. Not sure how mint is a seasonal scent
  Photographer found comment helpful.
11/26/2003 04:33:09 PM
well done, I like the washed out effect of the overexposed whites
  Photographer found comment helpful.
11/26/2003 03:27:58 PM
Excellent!

Good idea. Peppermint is a good aroma to capture. The crushed pieces and peppermint leaf (if indeed that is what it is) support the challenge perfect.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
11/26/2003 09:26:55 AM
Excellent. I can just smell the mint...only thing I wonder about is if the white could be a little brighter? Still, nice job.

Good on the subject of the challenge. I think the only difference I might make is to have a backgound with little more contrast or perhaps change the angle of the light so the shadows are more pronounced. Good shot.

Awesome image. Timely photo, too. Crisp and clean image. Border works well. A winner in my book - 10 from me. Love the crumbled pieces - they really add to the image.

Fantastic colour combination. Not impressed by the extreme amount of noise in the shadow under the candycane, and there is a blue tinge to the whole picture (manual white balance is your friend!) - oterwise great work! (8)

Good, contrasting colors. I like this shot and like the white background. I would only criticize the the focus and the lighting on the mint. They are minor issues as I find this very appealing.

A very nice arrangement with the candy cane, broken candy and mint leaf to underscore the smell and the seasonal aspect of this shot. It would make a nice card.

Good shot, slightly overexposed in the area to the right. I could smell this photo!! 6
