I thought this might be kind of a fun way to show the division of 3rds. I think it could be misunderstood, but the DPC folk are pretty smart. I preformed curves, levels, selective color, and some slight desaturation. The lighting was a remote strobe in the back ground to remove shadows and two homemade soft boxes as the main light source.

I think it's cute and a nice try. You certainly look like you know what you're doing...I'm not sure if it is or it's just me wanting it to be, it's kind of vague...the one tomater in the upper right looks just slightly redder then the rest. If it were obvious...then I'd say this photo would have been a 10. If you would have used an orange or apple...it would have been over the top. Good luck to ya...8

You certainly covered the ROT. This picture looks like it should be hanging on a kitchen wall in an old farm house. Nice shot. It gives me that "home sweet home" feeling. 8
