I did try it with a lower angle, but just didn't like it...my cam was getting repaired so I had to use my mom's, which I haven't used for a very long time, and I couldn't figure out how to get it to do what I wanted (like lock the focus).
But I guess it's "the person behind the camera, not the camera" that makes the shot, right?
You and your 1 mp camera...Grr. :p

A clever idea!
I think it could have been better executed and have more connection with the challenge with a lower angle.

good idea. interesting choice to have the theif leave bottom left. like seeing the clues before the crime. focus is a bit soft. i like the b/w

I like the idea, but feel that this could do with a little extra sharpening.

Not sure what to say on this image. It is too washed out for my taste. I like what you were tring to do. Perhaps a side view? Lighting, different color plate?
My perception.

Tee-hee. Shared histories for everyone. Brings me back to my childhood. Focus a little bit soft for me though but your subject is wonderful for the challenge.

Creative, very nice image, except that the contrast seems too low, it feels hazy, and the brightness seems low as well. A little curves boost would make it really great.

This looks similar to third place (i think. i am thinking of the salt shaker shot) from the first Leading Lines . My only suggestion would be that it looks a bit too set up. If there was a bunch of crumbs on the table from someone eating cookies they would not be centered in a line. They would tend to scatter all over the place. This of course would eliminate the leading lines. I respect your attempt at this shot however. 6.

I love this idea. Great image however my personal preference would have been to have the entire image in focus as the crumb sharpness fades (probably by choice I realize). Still gets a high rating from me.

That's funny. I'm wondering where the mouse is that made this mess?
