This would have been such a good picture if it was bigger! Why oh why is it so small, it is so good but we can't see really how good!!!!

This made me chuckle. I like how you gave the "rope" a shadow also. Bumping it up for cleverness.

the back ground is a little too busy so you hardly notice the little girl at first. a good idea though

Too small and too much going on. I almost didn't even see the little girl diving into the box. You would have had a great shot if ya cleared away all but the cookie box in question on both shelves and had only the top shelf at the top of frame, the girl going into a much bigger box and nothing else. Remember simpler is almost always better. Especially true in set up shots!

I nearly didn't see her in there, I don't know how you did it but it's a good illusion.

the photo is too cluttered for my tasted, and I would also like it better if the picture were bigger...4

This is cute.
The girl seems just a little small and certainly doens't take central focus.
Good creativity and uniqueness. Nice touch with her shadow by the way. (7)

Very good idea and execution of the shot...and the photo cut out does look realistic. I do think however that the background is too busy, it actually took me a second to see the girl and I focused instead on the pop secret :) Maybe just one box of cookie on a neutral counter top/backdrop or an near empty shelf?
08/11/2005 09:11:24 PM
This appears to be breaking a rule ... does it use 2 images?

The girl needs to be a little bigger so that she could be seen. The photo is a little bit too busy for the title you need to get some of the items out of the way.

The picture is a little busy for it to be easy to pick out the little girl. The picture could also have been a little larger (we are given 640 pixels on the long edge ... use it).

Cool picture, good idea; think the image needs to be a little larger of the little girl.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

this is a great capture, I would prefer there to be a few less items on the shelf (less distractions) so that the clever illusioin with the little girl stand out more.

It took me quite some time to see the illusion, and when I did, I was impressed. However, the clutter and lack of sharp focus detracts for me. A clear cupboard with just a few key items would have scored much better from me, but hurrah for a clear, unique illusion. :)

A larger image would have been better. I like this humorous shot although where does the rope end?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
08/09/2005 10:33:40 AM
Great idea. I think the other pakages and boxes distract too much from the little girl. It took me a few moments to find her.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Not sure if this would be legal, but nice clear image. Is the top shelf really needed?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
08/08/2005 11:39:49 PM
very cute :) I think less clutter in the background (or cropping to focus more on the box of cookies) would help you here. Your lighting is quite harsh as well.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

A cute idea, and the illusion is well executed, but the small subject is all but lost in the clutter. A tighter crop and less "stuff" would have helped immensely IMO.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
08/08/2005 09:28:20 PM
LOL - cute idea. I can tell though that the girl is a cutout. Perhaps slightly different lighting would have made it appear more lifelike, but still a good shot.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
08/08/2005 07:29:51 PM
i almost didn't see her in there! lol... cool idea
  Photographer found comment helpful.
08/08/2005 04:31:37 PM
funny shot, entirely too cluttered though... however looks like a delicious set of snacks
  Photographer found comment helpful.
08/08/2005 03:08:09 PM
Lighting is good, the girl's lighting doesn't look quite the same though. Nice effect.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
08/08/2005 02:32:59 PM
That is really cute. Nice illusion shot, however, the other boxes of things around it are distracting. Also, you should take advantage of the 640 pixel max and make your image larger for the voters.

mmm im coming to raid your shelves too those cookies look good!
This reminds me of "the borrowers"
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I wish you had submitted this in a bit l;arger format as the little girl is NOT right way noticable. VERY cute idea
  Photographer found comment helpful.
08/08/2005 09:54:12 AM
nice idea and good execution.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
08/08/2005 01:37:18 AM
fun idea but with all the clutter around the cookie box it took me a min. to find the girl

hey my kids would LOVE this..... 8

Well thought out illusion.

will be interesting to see how this was done without using two photos. Great pic.
