Responding to your request for comments in the forums:
Actually I'm not going to be so helpful as I would have scored this a 6 or 7.
I like the feel of perspective that you have achieved by going close in to the subjects in the foreground and also by using a low viewpoint. I also really like the low DOF that has resulted.
Another thing I like is the inclusion of the cork text - adds an interesting detail.
I would say that the overall image is quite dark - not badly lit, just in terms of choices of backdrop and subject matter - which may not appeal to a lot of voters.
I'd also add that composition isn't particularly strong or balanced - there is an interesting diagonal from the corkscrew and top right bottle but otherwise the composition feels very random, and doesn't click for me.

| Nice compostion, but I find the colours of the labels distracting. Under advanced rules you could desaturate them without affecting the rest of the picture. Others may disagree - just a thought. |

| Composition could be better, the cork and corkscrew are too much in the bottom of the picture, too close to the edge. The colored labels on the labels are a bit distracting. Depth of focus is very nice, good lighting. |

| Yup, this meets the challenge. And a beautiful rendition of the corkscrew and cork. Wonder what brand makes that appropriately named cork. Doesn't matter, nicely done. |

Great DOF but litle to much cropping ... let the things breath more.
Lightning good.
I would say that this is a 9 hmmm or not ... maybe just 10 :) |
