* Greetings from the Critique Club*
Hi Ben. First up, congratulations on your highest scoring image. I've always preferred the 'less is more' style of photograph and this is a classic example. You obviously put in a lot of effort to get this one.
The colours are striking and you resisted from the 'too much saturation' syndrome which can happen with images like this. I find the blacks of the seeds and around the strawberry seem a little strange looking, almost painted on. It could be from the PP perhaps.
Your framing and focus are good. I've been sitting here trying to look at your lighting as the shadow looks a bit wierd in that it seems 'cut off' on the edge. I could be just being picky here though.
All up, it's a great simple photo and it was received very well. Good stuff. Best of luck in your future challenges.

yeah, lets just say the burning around the strawberry didn't look ANYWHERE as bold on the screen i did the first edit on. Actualy, on my new *New* monitor, all my edited photos look a little dull. And this one... a little over processed :-( Thanks for your comments everyone!

'ello Ben, this is very creative! I only have to gripe about the conspicuous black outline around the strawberry. Anyway, it's looks yummy. :) |

Very DPC'ish. ;^) Clean, simple, well-focused, brightly colored. Great stock image. Yep - should do well with this one (if the Abstract DNMC folks don't getcha). Good luck in the challenge. |

Terrific concept and I like the minimalism. However, the contrast seems way out which is such a shame. |

Yay! Ben!!! I signed onto msn at 10:30 and i was so happy to see you weren't online. Because that meant you'd submitted! Of course directly after i was uber depresso because you weren't online. I love it. It's sooooo wonderful. The colours are so wonderful and well a repeat of everything I said about it yesterday. LOVE IT. |

Very creative. Possibly not what I think of when I think abstract, but that might just be me, so I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. Nice even lighting. Great title. |

great title...it just looks quite washed out and bland...perhaps a tigher crop would have been better cause the idea is fantastic |
