Intriging view on a vanishing point. Good thinking of not showing the photographer.

I think this would have been more interesting if it were only the vase. Just my opinion.

This is a great idea and you have captured the reflection well. I wonder if cropping in closer AND having a plainer background (e.g. a piece of card behind the pot) might have made this stand out even more?

nice effect on the pot, good eye, I bet some folks don't get this shot.

good picture, great combination

I think I see your idea but don't think it works. Artifical plant, and too much background to hold the eye on the leading lines. Your focus is fine, color is also good. Just too complicated.

very nice, I like the black on white, and a great sharp reflection. I'll be disapointed if this dosent place

lame

Cropping to focus on the pot would help, since that is where most of the action is.

I like the way you have used the reflection in the pot to get the vanishing point. Invest in some real flowers next time, and this will get a higher grade from me.

didn't see the relevance until I noticed the reflection in the flowerpot. Very clever. Would've liked to have seen only the flowerpot in focus though, to highlight this trick

Great idea. Might have worked better with a tighter crop on the bowl to really accentuate the perspective in the reflection.

Good Reflection.

very cool use of the reflection in the flower pot to emphasize the convergence of the parallel lines. well done.

oh, i came so close...so close, to just clicking off a vote. it really does pay to slow down every now then, just so you don't screw someone out of 7 or 8 points...
