Beautiful take on the 'drop' shot. The gradation of your BG from bottom to top is nice and even. The metal and orange also work well together. Good capture.

Well executed. Perfect control of DOF. Nice colour saturation. Great composition.

A lot of people here aren't fond of symetry in photographs but I think in this case it adds to the beauty of the shot. I love the rich tone of the shot and the soft shadows as well.

Good use of DOF. Head turned slightly one way or another could have been more interesting. Looks like it may have been slightly over processed by looking at the left side of the picture.

Nice clean image. Hard to make a phone interesting. Maybe if it were shot from a different angle. Or a tighter crop to show the Orange logo lettering more clearly. Certainly would make a good product or stock shot as is.

What I see here is an image that looks like it was sepia toned and I'm stretching to say it may have an orange tone. Compositionally it is interesting and certainly abstract, to me at least; I have no clue as to what it could be or it's significance. I didn't take away full marks for colour. 3

Unless my monitor is way off (which I'm sure it's not) this is no where near orange, other than the colour cast which arguably could have an orange hue. Compositionally it is OK but I think more negative space on either side would have been better; enough at the top; nicely off-center. Focus seems a little soft but that could be the preception due to the colour cast/hazy effect. This could probably be removed for the most part with Levels and unsharp mask. 2

Compositionally a good shot. The hue/levels thing or whatever you did with it to give it a orange tone doesn't flatter the image. Some people like the effect and sometimes it can be a nice touch but to me in this instance it is over done (I've done it myself - didn't work for me either) 2

Was this a deliberate attempt at thumbing your nose at the challenge guidelines? If it was, that's your perogative. You'd would have to be legally blind not to see that it's out of focus; it almost seems intentional. And even though totally out of focus, it looks suspiciously like a member of the fruit family that was stricken from the challenge. If you didn't understand the challenge or are actually legally blind, I apologize. 1

"Security......someone call security....there's a pervert with a camera in isle 10." Good idea but a little noisy and little soft focused.
