Hey there from the Critique Club

Camera Work/Technical: Nice focus and fine settings to keep all the necessary elements in focus. Your chosen white balance also yields very nice tones and coloring.

Lighting: I really enjoy the warmth that you created with your lighting in this capture. The green and brown hues of the background work nicely to set your subject off.

Composition/Content: Very creative thinking to meet the challenge. It still seems a bit too centered to me, and the tilt of the tabletop(?), very horizon-like, gives the image an uncomfortable feel.

My Opinion: You absolutely met the challenge, but I don't think it was what the voters had in mind. Even still, with a bit different composition and a straightened horizon line, I think your score would have grown.

Original concept and excellent execution. I particularly like the three tone background. 10

Nice colors, though the background would have looked better with just one color, IMHO | A little soft & a little overexposed | Wish the image had more interest overall - a unique pattern or something... | Will give an extra point for out-of-the-box thinking -- 6 --
