Critique Club Review:

Technical: Focus and the applied depth of field are good. Brightness is good, contrast is low as applied to this challenge.

Reaction: Overall this is an interesting picture. I too like the effect that you achieved here. I believe most voters were looking for a high contrast betwen the bright and dark areas of your photo.

I do see an interesting contrast between the harpness of the points of the cone, and the relative softness of the center. Is this what you were going for?
