FWIW, I happen to think your image is excellent.... just as it is! Rod is exactly right, the bowl gives the image balance and a warm color. Markjay

Thank you guys. I tend to agree with Rod, although from purely compositional perspective Abstract and Rich are right
Rod 17-Nov-2004 12:27
I dissagree:-) The bowl is balancing with the screen nicely & the spoon is pointing at the screen which helps the balance. Cropping half the bowl out would put too much emphasis on the screen, & computer screens make for nothing shots on most occasions. Nice shot as is Alex:-)

I agree with Abstract, the cup is stealing the show, crop some of it out. Nice shot.

aaaahaaa...now i see some complexity. nice concept and on-topic entry alexeig.
for * -> i would crop the cup so that the computer screen ends at 2/3rd of the frame. right now, the simplicity (needs) the secondary subject is taking over the primary (complexity, math algorithms). just my 2 cents. -Abstract
