Nice and cute idea! I think I might have cropped out more of the portion that's holding the pencils up and perhaps, shot it from a different angle but, it's really cute.

Very pretty and nice composition. On my monitor, it's showing up rather low key. Wondering why you didn't lighten it up just a tad? It might have brought out some highlights and depth to give it a bit more punch. Hope it's doing well. :)

One Potato Chip a Day

LOL...I wish I could only eat one. I have to not bring them into the house! LOL

Lovely color contrast and I like the contrast between the 2 textures. The focus seems a bit off on the chip but, more focused on the table cloth texture. That aside, the photo itself lacks a bit of "oomph" or interest. I think that may do the score in a bit. :( Really, it's purely that it's lacking interest.

Who'd think an ordinary object could look so interesting? Nice job!

Had to stare at this for a bit until I realized what it was and how this was done. Very nice! :)

Beautiful capture! The eyes are so intriguing that it pulls you into this shot. Very beautiful cat btw. :) I wish I could vote but, I'm not a paying member right now so, comments only. :(

Jo, I'm so sorry that there's a couple of self-proclaimed "know-it-alls" in here, disrupting your enjoyment of having just won this ribbon. Perhaps, they do need some help in learning etiquette. (A statement, not a question).

Dudski and Kgeary...neither of you have any idea of what it is that you're talking about. There have been PLENTY of photos gracing the front pages of this site that I have had to head scratch, wondering why they are there. However, they are there. Enough people found merit and beauty in the shot to put it there. The same holds true with this one. Accept it...your particular tastes or not.

As for looking "fishy"...there are all kinds of forms of editing techniques. Just because YOU can't figure out how they're done "legally" doesn't mean that they ARE illegal.

Too bad neither one of you could censor yourselves enough to either not comment if you had nothing good to say about a winning entry...or...simply refrained from commenting (as I do when I don't agree with a ribboner) and waited to see if it was validated.

Both of you will look like fools when this ribbon sticks. I hope your photos receive the same curteousness as what you've shown here on this one.
