Ha, Barry, was just looking at this and reading the comments. Amazing how the concept of toast soldiers does not translate globally! |

I did not enter, but I was considering a hard boiled egg! Nicely shot but the color of the toast vies for attention with the nicely colorful egg. 8 |

The blue tablecloth draws my eye away from the main subject. |

Nice concept, It seems to work well, however I wouldn't have gone center frame, something more 1/3 would have been nice. |

Soldiers? Well, anywho....the boiled egg is nice and clear. The tablecloth is slightly distracting. |

the orange/yellow is a bit strong in this, I think. It does contrast nicely with the blue, though. |

Almost reminds me of Martin Parr; he has a photo of a proper cup of tea served in an English tea room, which works along similar lines: saturated colour, direct flash to remove all shadows, simple centred framing - lacking in pretension, just showing us the object as found, as seen. Arguably just documenting the item, letting us draw our own conclusions. He would work more simply still however - total depth of field, rather than using the focus to point the eye in this manner. People will call it a pointless snapshot, perhaps; and perhaps they're right - perhaps its the kind of thing that needs rather to be seen in a series, than as a stand alone image. |
