Thanks guys. Well, considering so many people voted on it, and there were 22 people nice enough to score it at 3 or below without commenting...

I think the problem is when I do a studio type shot I tend to get "too cute" with it, and do something that requires the voters to actually think. I do not think it is unfair to say that the majority of the voters are only looking for the "eye candy" and pay precious little attention to technical difficulty or even relevance to the theme.

I do have to say that when I get a comment as nice as the one from L2 which shows I managed to make the connection with her at least, it makes it worthwhile regardless of the 22 who voted it down without commenting. (against DPC voting guidelines)

This is an incredibly low score for such a technically well done photo. The comments you received really don't say why this only got a 5.1. 13 3's? Really??

I really don't know why this scored so low. Good shot.

Well? I think it's an excellent photo. It's a very good idea for the challenge. I'm not a fan of seeing labels of merchandise though. Your focus is super sharp and the lighting perfect.

Haha Funny.
I like the inclusion of a reflection.
I think the black background is a bit too empty.

Hmm, interesting concept - that lotion will make oranges smooth. Congrats on having something to say. Technicals are good - focus is on and the reflection is nice. Colors pop - also good. I don't like it very much more than a 7, but it's so much better than the others in the challenge I'll give it an 8 to make sure it scores above the ones without a story or a message.

Nice concept, and well lit image. I would crop the bottom a little more thought. As it is, the balance of the composition is a little off.
