Too much of a good thing? Nice, but could easily be improved.

1) straighten a little.

2) Needs to be adjusted *just a little* to give it some wow color. I popped this into Paintshop Pro to see. Took about 15 seconds of adjustments to give it a lot more pop using levels, curves and saturation.

A 5, but with those easy adjustments it would be a 6 or 7.

Interesting how ketchup isn't very red. The puddle at the bottom has some interesting qualities, but the dribbles over the top and down the front of the container doom this image to a low score.

I find the subject just a tad boring. Nice composition though.

Unappealing. Looks like something you'd do to make a group of Jr. High guys bust a gut laughing. Of course, my cousin liked ketchup with his ketchup...

Bet it was hell clearing the mess up afterwards ;-) It looks more brown than red on my monitor but I know Heinz Ketchup is red so I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.

Some PP to make the Sauce (I am an Aussie) more red, instead of brown, would have added to this

I like the composition and lighting for this. Could have used some color correction to make the ketchup less brown.

I think if the lighting were softer it wouldn't feel so much like a snapshot.
