Post: I'm actually quite embarrassed that this did as well as it did. I didn't read the challenge description. I was getting ready for work, and I told myself, "you have to get something in for this veggie challenge!" I grabbed my camera and spent about 5 minutes shooting with a 2 minute process job.

So that's what it looks like up close. I love broccoli but this makes me look at it differently.

I really like this shot. Incredibly detailed, with perfect color and light. I don't see it as a "scene made with fruits or vegetables" however. Might be my own narrow interpretation of the topic, as I am seeing a lot of shots like this.

Not at all what I was hoping to find for this challenge. I thought they would all be from the cartoon 'Veggie Tales'. This is far from the cartoon. But, it is an excellent photo. It's Adam Sandler that did that 'Broccoli Song' on SNL isn't it? I did care for that. I care for this photo much better: 9

Great detail, but I don't see how this fits the challenge theme whatsoever. ??? Where's the story?

I never thought broccoli could be this beautiful!

Nice image, but one could question whether a scene has been built

I had that song in my head all of last week, and now it's back again. But really, its a great shot, one of my faves so far.
