 I was going to enter in the Leading Lines challenge, but couldn't get anything good, so I opted for this idea - hope it's not too much of a stretch on the theme!

Great use of Peas and clever title. Beautiful color and I love the whole set up. I need to learn how to do better lighting like this. Good luck!

lovely cast to these peas, the shine is just right, the white background makes them pop, crisp clean details

I love the bright, vibrant colors here. And the background color adds beautiful contrast

Clever idea.

good picture, but im not really sure what the peas have to do with anything.

Nice colours and good idea. I think maybe focusing more towards the center of the peas would stop the peas at the back being out of focus or maybe closing the aperture by 1 or 2 stops to increase the dof very slightly, that said it doesn't detract from the image too much

sigh... it's a nice picture of hands holding peas but the peas pun just doesn't make it for me.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Although it's a cute little pun, the picture still isn't much for the eye.

Heh. Funny. Nicely composed photo.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/21/2008 05:08:34 AM
this is very funny! good focus i like the green against the white
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/21/2008 05:05:23 AM
Yes... but the subject is "Peace". Well done, though.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/21/2008 04:59:14 AM
This picture is very simple. The brightness of the green and the highlights puts emphasis on the peas.

Very nice. "Give Peas a Chance"! Good lighting and color.

Interesting take.

Love the pun, nice crisp shot too and just the right amount of softness.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

:) I really like the pastel dreaminess of the backdrop -- contrasting with the hands and the peas. I like this alot

Very humorous. :) 7

Great idea and twist on the topic. The exposure and lighting are very nice, but I'd like to see all of the peas in focus. Or maybe simply remove the three that in the arc at the back of the hands which I find to be most distracting.

Kind of a stretch for me. 5
