Thanks for leaving your comments and votes :)

Naturally it's not the most stunning photo I've shot. Didn't set expections too high but it is a calm and eye pleasing so I'm very glad to have made the top5. One of those shots that looks more different than I would've liked on my CRT and LCD. Might look a little oversaturated and overexposed on some LCDs.

Techo, you do amazing work and I try to learn by watching you. I just totally do not get why this image works for so many people. To me it's just a leaf in a bowl. I saw the B*W version of the CTF challenge and they love it there too.I just don't get it. Please don't take my comment as disrespect, I'm just trying to figure it out.

You need another ribbon like I need another bad habit, but I'm glad to see this bumped to the front page. Once again, your minimalist approach is a feast for my eyes.

Nice, but i think it is too simple, maybe if the bowl was a different color to make it pop out more, but overall it is good

the composition works well but the pic seems overexposed because of the sharpening/reflections and a little too oversaturated..

I like the idea behind the shot. The artsy crop is really interesting as well. Nice shot and really nice artistic vision.

One of the few times where I've seen grain really work. Love the composition, love everything about this photo.

An interesting "still life" with lovely choice of complementing colours and textures. I don't like the crop to the left hand side - it's a touch too close to the edge of the bowl. But overall, like this very much indeed.

12/19/2007 03:35:11 PM
best one I've seen so far. Love the composition.
