| The tomatoes are wonderfully luminous, but the board looks a bit flat. I'm wondering how it would have turned out with a darker wood. |

Well... technically it's a fruit right? But I say veggie cus you salt em! lol.
Really nice shine you have going on here. Probably would have like the tip of the knife left in. |

| Very, very good. Love how the knife came out. Good colors and I like how it's all nicely framed by the rim on the chopping board. |

| Composition is good. Lighting is keen in any photos and this is where the majority of my critique lies. The lighting overall is good but the high gloss sheen on the tomatoes make them appear plastic and unreal. Diffused lighting instead of spot-on lighting may help eliminate the problem. The other solution is to lessen the sheen in post-processsing. Possibly using the clone tool at a setting of 30-40 opacity and going over the spots with the high sheen to tone them down will still give you the rich colors without flattening the tone. I am not sure a cutting board with all those visible cuts makes a good backdrop for the main subjects. The scuffed up/cut-up look to the board detracts some attention away from the knife and the tomatoes because they cannot visually pop off of the surface of the backdrop. Lastly I think it would have added visually if the sharp point of the knife was visible in the composition instead of cropped out. Why? Seeing the sharp edge along with the sharp point of the blade helps add subtley to the connection of slicing the tomatoes. |

| A:4 bright red balls on a bit of wood posing as tomatoes.... sorry bad sense of humour.... nice composition, very red toms and the blue in the knife really seys this shot off for me. possibly HDR, the cuts on the board add something but im not sure I like it - 8 |

Fruit - this is a confusing world.
The arrangement of the objects is good on this, however knive + chopping board = chopped (although I would have accepted sliced ;-) tomatoes.
The colour in the tomatoes is good, but becarefull of the blown highlights, they tend to pull the eye away.
There also looks like a bit a Noise Reduction went on there, things look a little soft and a touch too smoothed over.
Good luck with this (4) |

| This looks like something I've see in a food magazine. I like the texture of the chopping board. The diagonal line of the knife breaks up the horizontal line of the board and circular aspec of the tomatoes. |
