First Thing In the Morning

I think this could be improved by not using a flash (to eliminate the shadows and take away the "snapshot" feeling); moving the main subject off center; and cropping the distracting wall hanging out on the left side. The flash reflection on the carafe is very not good!

The concept was good.

Focus is a bit too soft, but nice composition.

This just looks too much like a snapshot with a distracting background. Other than that, the lighting is wonderful.

Good effect. I don't get the theme connection, unless it's the Window's startup.

Nicely executed. Excellent choice of sepia and POV.

I really like this photo! Love the lighting and the POV. The blue background works well to separate the bowl. Love the EGG.

Very creative composition -- meets the challange perfectly.

Sorry, this looks too much like a posed snapshot with a flash.

Overall nice picture. However it looks like it's been "overly" processed and I don't think the rocks in the forground look real. Also, I think it would have been more effective to move the main subject off center... maybe try and follow that bird. Great rainbow!

Also, I'd have cropped out the light seaweed? in the lower left and the white flaw on the skyline on the left of the mountain.
