Cute idea. I think I would have liked a slightly more straight-on angle looking at the face a bit more. Colors are great and I think you made a good choice of the background, though it seemed to get mixed reviews. I also like the border.

Cute shot, simple low tech device. I like the high key here, and the angle. I am more mixed about the foreground texture--is this sitting on a bedspread?

This would be a perfect poster for a kid's room. Too bad you can't use it for the "yellow" competition. Good luck!

OK. There's a hot debate running in the forums about what exactly is "electronic".

I have decided to subtract only one point for items I believe to be electronic, rahter than the hard-line "1" I originally issued for such items. This is far more fair and reasonable.

In this case, you claim via E-mail that this clock is in fact wind-up. I will have to take your word for it and have voted accordingly.

Good perspective, well focused, Simple but nicely done. Would have worked well in the Yellow Challenge.

I love the colors and the border works nice with this. I think if you used a white piece of paper and not carpet for the b/g it would have been better. I think the lines take away from it.
