I like it. All those nice things to watch. Overall it looks a little yellow to me, perhaps it needs playing with the color balance.

Great job with the reflections. I feel as though the saturation and focus on the right side could have been increased and maybe the wood lightened slightly to show off the grain, but it is still a nice shot regardless.

Very well done. Now I think I may learn a thing or two by watching you this month I'm hopeless, hopeless, hopeless with any reflective surfaces.

Great editing work here looks like your removed some of the reflective glare that was on the glass. I've heard people saying that you can shoot something like this with a polarizer filter and you will not see the reflections but I haven't tried it...

Anyway you did a good job on this.

Cool idea, I was wondering where you were going to go with your doors! Looks great at iso 800!!

THank you all for the C&C.

@roz: i actually went back and forth between the non glamour glow ver. and this one. ill post the non when i get home. it gives more reflection from the Steiff teddys and pyramids (the perpellar things).

fun shot of doors protecting treasures of the heart

i preferred the unedited version because i could see the reflections and more of the details .. but i like the more intense colours in the edited version ... i'd be combining them so that the reflections are still visible with the added oomph you've given the edited version .. just my humble opinion .. :)

very nice work on getting rid of most of the glare, and
you selected a good crop to show off the main attraction.

The dolls and items add a nice color to the shot. Doors frame the shelves nicely. Maybe a little dark to really show off any of the details of the doors themselves.

It's fun to see the collection of items behind the doors.

I like the change in contrast. You did a good job of bringing the items inside to the focal point and removing the glare on the glass.

Good sharpness on the left, not sure I like the oof on the right. Doors slightly open bother me a bit too. On the positive side, I like the colors and pseudo-random arrangement.
