I like the way this garlic clove peel looks like a bird's head. It's posed against some white plastic spoons on a piece of white paper, by late afternoon window light. Shooting this made my eyes tired, all that white. I auto-adjusted color & sharpened before resize & save. Minimal editing is a trip!

Nice high key image. Has an Asian feel for some reason.

Too tough for me to choose the best, whoever the winner... you're the best among the best. 9

Great idea, using the white spoons to achieve the curves and gradients in the background. Lovely image.

a nonsense setup, but rather well executed

This would have worked better had the spoons had some connection to the object. It would have been cliche to use a sugar cube, but the connection between the two objects would have made more sense. Is that a garlic shell or a flower? The title isn't helping me much either.
