 Decided to try out this idea I had. Three dollars got me two different kinds of candy necklaces and a nice white foam board. Hope you enjoy it, I had to be more precise in placing the candy than I thought! I ended up using tweezers to place each individual candy piece on the board. I am pretty happy with the final result though. This photo is comepletely unedited except for being resized.

Bummer! pretty disappointed with my score, but that one favorite makes it all worthwhile to me. Atleast somebody enjoyed it. Maybe a black background and more contrast would have helped?

These candies are so muted that by putting them on a white background, they get even more diminished. Just a thought.

I wonder if more contrast would help the colors pop a bit more.

Idea is good, but to be able to compete with the high scorers, would recommend that you
- work on your lighting technique
- post processing skills (focus on color saturation, contrast)

Sorry to be picky but this would so much better if the beads were lined up perfectly straight. It really takes a 7-8 photo and makes it a 4-5 photo.

I think this image is a little soft, mostly due to the DOF. The DOF seems centered a little too far back, away from where the eye is naturally going. Lighting from a different angle could have also produced a bolder look to it.

can't argue that and it's very pretty. Extra point for the effort involved. 7
