Thanks, Srf_Cast. To stay under the 150kb size limit and avoid excessive jpg compression artifacts I had to keep the image this small. You can see a larger version (amost 600kb in size) athttp://www.pbase.com/kchristi/image/40757528 -- Kenneth

This is a beautiful shot. I love the colors and how involved they are in finding the perfect veggie ;) Too bad it’s so small. Srf_Cast

Oh, yes...the colors of the vegetables are much more natural looking.

Thanks for your comments, Mary Ann. This is a scanned Kodachrome transparency. The lighting on the original is extremely contrasty and I was trying to get some detail in the shadows. But in doing so I desaturated the vegetables on the table. I have now selectively increased contrast and saturation in the image and then re-uploaded it. Is this any better? -- Kenneth

Nice candid with a wonderful array of colors. However, the colors themselves seem a little overexposed to me. Have you tried increasing the saturation or contrast? I really like the shot except that it lacks a certain "punch."
