Beautiful use of photographic composition. Slight editing, but still maintains the essence of photography (not photoshop)

Flavor Overload

I love how it's not just a baby tasting the food (and obvious shot). The expression is happy, the toung clearly in view, the mess indicating she's had some of the watermelon, along with the bite out of the piece in her hand. I can definately tell this is taste, the textures of the bib and seat help as well.

Makes me think there's a story there. Gives me a piece to a puzzle. Beautiful lighting.

A pun on 3D pictures. I like the sepia overtones to the obvious old pics. With a smaller aperture you can get the double photos in focus as well.

If you were below, looking up at the praying mantis, you could have gotten a "monster" big looking insect with a dramatic angle, and also be able to keep it more in focus.

The light captures the fabric beauitifully, and it comes alive from the black background.

I love the original subject matter. I'd be interested in hearing how you made the shot of what looks like one skyscrapper with a many faceted personality.

Coffee : Treat for the eyes, nose and the tongue

Beautiful shot, could be a foldgers commercial. The artist in me thinks if you added a pile of sugar next to the cup, or some cinnamon sticks hidden in the sea of coffe beans it would add a more artistic and slightly less commercial feel to this picture. You can also play with the color of the lighting, with warm reds to imply a warm cup of coffee or cool blues for a cold morning for coffee.
