Summer Punnet - Slightly from above

Greetings from Andi via the Critique Club.

First Impression: Well, I guess you already know my first thought? ok, it meets the challenge (just) but you were pushing it here. Two other immediate thoughts were the container just doesn't fit in and the background is well, boring.

Composition: Not too happy about the image being cut in half by the foreground/backgound split but do like the idea of the 'triangle' of strawberries.

Tecnical: The lighting and exposure on the strawberries and table cloth are very good and the focus is spot on for me.

Artistic: The layout of the strawberries is good for me however there is nothing else here to move this from a snapshot type shot.

Overall thoughts: A tecnically well taken shot but sadly let down by the plastic pot and background and the biggy is for me it doesn't do the challenge title much justice. that said I do think a 4.1 was a little harsh.

Excellent idea. The grain adds a texture to the mushroom reminding me of the hills of the Southwest.
