Green cardboard, a single flash with white umbrella, my right arm and a remote trigger. Had to try several times to get the "perfect" crop.

That's the best he can come up with for his bride?! They look pretty good, though. And more practical than flowers ;-)

This has a comfortable familiarity in a stock-photo sense - the studio background is beautiful and the carrots are too. I can't believe you got George to be your hand model.

I thought about doing something almost like this. I don't think it would have come out as good as yours.

I like the idea. Just a bit bright. Maybe a polarizer would have helped provide some more saturation in those highlight areas. I like it though. 7

I like the idea and the title. IT seems a touch harsh in the lighting department. 7

I gave the other entries a quick browse, there's only two which could compete with yours, so you'll get a ribbon for sure. As Keith said, your turn this week. Good luck.
