Congrats on the win. It certainly is a good photo and the shadows are strong. Your lighting was very effective. Not lighting all 3 of them equally. Nice work and again congrats.

This is wonderful. I have made it my wallpaper so I can keep looking at it and it doesn't suffer at all from having to crop it to fit.

I love the simplicity of this shot. The lighting is beautiful. Great work :) = 10

Excellent. I think cropping a bit off the left side to make the jugs just a little bigger in the frame would've been my preference, but its very good like this. Well executed very clear shot. I'm guessing you are doing pretty well with this one. Nice work 8

Ah very clear and focused still life. The hard light from the right is spot on, just under the "too much" phase, you regulated that one well. The long shadows of the pots extending out into the darkness on the left seems like they are reaching out and wanting to connect.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
10/31/2003 12:00:58 PM
Nice composition. Good focus. Nice lighting. I like the colourisation, nice editing. Good luck.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I really like this! The jugs are very sharp, the texture shows up nice. I like the gradient of the background and the way it fades to dark on the left. The lighting is very well done, and of course the shadows are present. This is a very classic still life shot, excellent quality, and very clean. One of my favorites of the challenge so far.

Perfection, I did not hesitate to give this a 10, excellent

Beautiful still life, but the shadow aspect of things seems lost.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Beautiful lighting. This looks a lot like the spilled milk photo from a little while ago. Great job. 9

Good picture. The shadows are not very prominent in this shot, but they are very much part of it. I love the colours, and the roundness of the three jugs. ~8

10/27/2003 11:55:33 AM
Very nice, refreshing. The lighting is very well done.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Many of my favorite shots are the simpliest ones -- and this is awesome. The clairity here is just supurb, and a great way to meet the challenge!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
10/27/2003 10:11:58 AM
Pretty shot. I think if we could see more of the shadows it would have more of an impact. I do love this shot so don't take me wrong......it's fantastic.
