 Sorry, for my English. I will try to explain how this shoot was taken. Stuff was on white paper sheet. I don't use any flash or other additional lighting. Just natural light from window ;) After taking photo, i use PS2. First i change level to make background more whiter, then use curves to make more colourful and croping, resizing and finaly USM.

Thanks for comments in advance ;)

I admit that dpchallenge is a deadly battlefield and it's sad to see a great photo like this to score only 5.3 The quality of the image is awesome and the idea too

I don't know if drugs can be considered food. Either way, the positioning is good but the clarity is a little off.

i really dont feel that this meets the challenge, but i'm going to vote on it as if it did because i suppose you could 'stretch' it to fit the theme. I just wouldnt classify vitamins and pills as health foods. They're things that keep you healthy, but you could also lump exercise and not smoking into this category and it wouldnt meet the challenge.

As for the photo - really nice colors and texture. I think you captured the subject very well.

very good shot if the topic was "Health Care". But it isn't.

I thought of doing something like that myself but wasn't sure people would understand the idea, anyway great photo - 10
