I wanted a simple white subject on a simple white background. I will say I wasn't sure about the negative space, but I thought it added interest to the picture, the only question I had is to put the pill to the right or the left of the picture. Normaly I would put it to the right, because I am right handed so I went diffrent and went left.

Why people are seeing simplicity as out of focus, bad taken photography? It will be very interesting if is in focus.

I felt the pill is out of focus.

This is too unclear for me. It takes a simple thing and seems to make it complex by making it hard to see.

I totally love the idea here. I was really excited to see it when the thumbnail came up, but I have to admit, this is just too soft for me. If this were in focus (or even just more in focus) I would be a lot more jazzed about it.

a little too simple for me... much too soft... barely there...

Excellent idea and format, but to me, the pill is much too soft.

A bit too soft to me. A slight more contrast would have helped.

I would have like a bit more contrast or sharper. But this is a good composition and idea.

I like the crop, and an interesting and simple idea. But for a photo that's mostly white, the very soft, OOF pill doesn't offer enough of a dose.

Less soft focus would suit my taste.

This is simple, it's true - I like the idea -, but there are a bit much negative space and it's too much out of focus for my taste. 2cm crop on the left, 4 cm on the right and a bit more focus and contast would make this more effective, it's just an opinion.

Technical: Most all images submitted fit the challenge. This does, but it's not a good photograph. Exposure composition and lighting seem okay... hard to tell with the complete lack of focus.

Personal: I feel this fails to convey.

My vote: 1

Appears out of focus.

not sure if the blur is intentional or not, but it is very distracting for this type of shot
