Challenge: PEAS! (Advanced Editing IV*)
Camera: Canon EOS-300D Rebel
Lens: Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II
Location: My basement
Date: Aug 13, 2006
Aperture: 5.6
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/13
Date Uploaded: Aug 13, 2006

It's an advanced editing challenge, but other than "Straight from the Camera", this is probably the least editing I have ever done to a challenege entry.

crop (100% pixel crop at 640x640),shadow/highlight, Noise Ninja, 2 Strokes (3 px green, 2 px maroon)

My first Woodie submission. I hope he does well. I predict a 5.3. This was the third different thing I tried. I even had my wife buy a block of Swiss cheese so I could do "Peas & Cheese", but I never even shot that one.

I didn't vote on this challenge and somehow missed even viewing them. This is an excellent shot. Well exposed, excellent DoF, composition/lighting/focus are all excellent! Very well done!

I have no aversion to Woody shots - especially when done well. This is nice and clean. The DOF works well and the colors are subtle and great. Nice work and bumping up.

this gets the highest score I've ever given a photo with a woody in it!

There will be no PEAS ...until there is CHEESE.
How can there be PEAS when CHEESE is denied us?
Every human being deserves to know the pleasure of CHEESE and PEAS UNITED.

Sorry...
I'm having way too much fun voting in this challenge.
This is a truly well done shot - good lighting, DOF, focal point. Very nice

Seriously though, peas floating in a bowl of warmed-up cheese wiz... It'll put hair on ya.

You brave soul, bringing woody into this. ;^) Actually, I quite like it. The DOF choice works well and I like the color selected for the background (rather than the standard black or white). Well focused and sharp where needed. Well done!

I want one of those dolls! Your DoP is perfect in this image and the idea is original... No complaints here.

Creative and crisp. The only (minor) flaw for me is that the crack in the wrist and the silver nut draw my eye away from the pea. A bit of cloning might have worked. Awesome job. Great title, too!

I like the macro here. I think you oversharpened it though - the halos are pretty apparent.

Nicely done and I like the pun! Love the simplicity of the colour palette, the bold close-up composition and the use of shallow DOF. Works!
