Greetings from the Critique Club
By Inspzil
Composition - Overall composition of this photo is not particularly strong. Basically it just lacks anything terribly interesting, not that it is bad either. Just not too much dynamic about it. Colors are a nice contrast so that the pi symbol shows up good. I'm not sure why its resting on a muffin paper cup. I feel it meets the challenge. This is a pretty difficult concept to put on "film" so I sympathize with you that way. I did not enter.
Technical - A little overexposed for my tastes. Color representation is good. The DOF could've been better with a higher F-number which I feel is pretty important in this photo. I don't see any particular reason why the shallow DOF was used, but maybe there is one. Personally I'd have turned the aperture shut as much as possible and just really used a lot of light to compensate. It doesn't look like you were short on light at all.
Overall - Not a bad photo but it doesn't have the visual impact to really grab anyone and make them notice it. I don't really have much for suggestions without radically changing the composition of the photo. THe biggest advice I have is to turn the F-number up to allow the entire image to be in focus. That being said, I bid you farewell and best of luck in future challenges - Inspzil |

I like the bright colours and the high contrast in this. It's better than a lot of similar photos in the challenge. The camera angle adds depth, and the white background keeps it clean and simple.
Yet, it isn't a highly artistic image. It still seems more like a photo that was designed to meet the challenge rather than be a work of art. |

| Colorful and engaging, this is almost like a celebration of pi's birthday! I wish the whole thing were in focus, though. i like the detail of the paper: nice touch. |

| Appears to have good DOF, but the light seems to wash out all detail on the Pi sign. Not sure if that is intentional to make it appear to glow or not. I like the way it blurs the farther up it goes. The frame is good in color, but I am not a fan of them. Not that I deduct for it. |

| Good colors. An overhead shot would have been better and could have been more in focus. |
