I love tea, and I love the concept here. It actually made me smile looking at this shot. I gave it a seven, so that's a good score I think, but I would have gone higher if not for the background (as raish was speaking of). |

This is a very fresh idea. I think maybe (if you were the sort of votes hawk that spends massive amounts of time and energy setting up shots) that it could me more effective against either a blurred out (bokeh) window/garden background or just a landscape picture of some sort, as well as the whole thing being stood up vertical - tea bags fixed somehow - with the rainbow more like a twelve o' clock to three o' clock quadrant and the honey pot inside it but less central. Maybe any old background would do, but preferably less intrusive/less in focus. I'm just thinking the effect could be a little lighter and airier (?) with a sort of off centre orientation.
Don't mind me, just thinking out loud. |
Raish, thank you for an excellent idea. Where were you when I needed you. I shot this photo in a room using available light from a picture window overlooking a Lake Superior beach. It was taken on a desk with a scotch tape dispenser on it. Why didn't I think of taping the tea bags to the window? *bangs head on wall* |

I noticed that the pot is not straight and the outside packets are cut off. Otherwise very good. |

Interesting idea. Only compliant is that the honey looks a big soft focus to me. |

:-) I really like your image. It's different, refreshing, nicely composed. Perhaps the lighting is a bit harsh around the honey jar, but there's something about your photo that makes me smile. Good luck in the challenge. |

nice and simple set up - good work - the lighting is a little too low for my taste (the shadows are too significant on the tea bags) |

I find this picture to be lacking interest in terms of composition and objects.. may be placing them less conventionally would have improved the picture.. |
