Actually, the background is a chair with snow on it which sits on my little balcony. Shu

Beautiful shapes and colors, and I love the pattern the shadows make in the background. --Melanie (mlynn)

The very second I saw this image, before opening up the larger thumb, I just KNEW it was a "Shu image". It has your signature written all over it, Shu :-) and, it's a beautiful image with nice shapes and colors. Markjay

Tracy--You're very nice! (Sigh of relief). I just putt along with visions of images I want to portray and hope I can show them the way I see them, as we all do, I suppose. But first and formost, we're here to learn and I appreciate any and all critiques from those of you who are so kind to take the time. Thanks again. Shu

Shu - I knew this was yours the minute I saw it! I actually don't mind the shadows in the bg - they lend a bit of depth to the image, and don't distract too much.
Cheers - Tracy!

Thats real beauty, Shu. You do have a capability to find amazing and unusual in most ordinary things

OOH! I can't correct! I tried but made a real mess out of it. (I'm a first grader in a 2-year PS teaching program.) I feel badly, but layers have eluded me in spite of the many books and tutorials I have. I'll take the critique on the chin and watch closely the next time I "fool around" with an image. This one is not perfect, but you get the general idea. Thanks. Shu

Shu, I like the image but keep on finding myself looking at the halos that seem to have been added post, I find them distracting. Other than that the colors and composition are excellent.

Very creative Shu. The background does draw away from the bowl. But personally I think it adds to the composition. It looks really cool and gives it a unique flavor, and coupled with the half bowl lends a question. Very nice, and Congrats on being the first! :) Cindy

Guys--The background is a snowy porch, shot through a screened door. I gaussian blurred to make up this abstract. The light source is dreary day lighting. I filtered the blue bowl to get the color I wanted. BTW, this was an actual snack. I noticed the unique lighting and decided to snap a few shots. Thanks for your critiques! Shu

Nice color and textures and light play !

But I am not sure that the critical light to this composition is in front of and directed at least partially toward the camera ---- WONDERSTRUCK

I like the pattern. :D I think a wider perspective would look better.

I'm sure about it... I'm sure I love it! Not sure about the pattern on the background, but the rest of it is just fantastic!! ~ Lonnit

I like the colors. Not sure the composition is working for me though.
