Through the Leaves

seems like this might have come from a lower end camera so I'm not gonna make an issue of the quality. i think the lighting in this one is a bit too harsh. .. especially along the left top portion. it seems almost overexposed. i like the leaves and carving but the baskets in the foreground aren't helping.. especially the one with the stars on plastic. might also help with a tad more contrast

Lemon Fresh

love the color combination. nice, simple composition .. lemons are a little overexposed. i like the shadows and directional lighting but the brighter areas are looking more white than yellow and losing their detail.

Signs of Fall

tad overexposed maybe. this is one of those ideas that may be better as an idea than as a final picture. nothing totally wrong with it as a photograph but even the pros would have a hard time making a wonderful picture of a bowl of wrapped candy ... putting it on the ground doesn't help a lot..
perhaps having one bar of chocolate and a bright colored leaf together on a solid background with dramatic lighting would be an alternative.

hmmm .. do you usually have paper behind the sink? ;P
I like the blueness in this one.. maybe a black fabric background would work better than the white paper.

pretty good job getting a white background and keeping the subject exposed properly. i'd like to see a bit more color... brighter leaves and fruit and berries.

Fall's Last Lanterns

these things are so cool. i like the selective color. composition seems a little weird somehow... maybe its all the unused space on the left. i'm not sure how much it really adds to the shot. i think it might also help to have the subject and the background contrast even more... have one be lighter and the other darker.

love the repetition. maybe some darker shadows and more contrast could add to the texture even more.

Autumn flowers

Comment:
not a traditional still life but i like the colors. maybe a tad busy with all the greenery in the foreground... isolating the one flower better could help

Cocktail Blue

Comment:
there seem to be some jaggy diagonal lines... oversharpened or not enough resolution? not sure. it's a cool composition though. i like the lighting even if the vertical lines on the background center are a bit bothersome

Awe. I didn't vote in this challenge so I'm glad you got a ribbon and made it onto the front page. It's very cute. I like how the words aren't all completely clear so that they aren't too very distracting. Did you diffuse the light? Seems to be a bit of glare along the left side. I like that it's off center and at a slight angle though. Congrats!!
