I had a completely different idea for this challenge that required good weather and cooperation from my 2 year old (neither of which were looking likely). However, this morning as I was shuffling by the wine rack on my way to that first cup of coffee, I noticed the tray of wine corks just screaming to be photographed... and they were more cooperative than an energetic toddler!!!

The only editing was cropping and one pass at sharpening the entire image

I love this one. This is actually a pretty boring challenge, but you have managed to compose a very appealing picture that stands out. I love your composition and lighting.

a little bit out of focus. IMO better depth of field would be better, nice composition and colors 7
