Thanks for your kind comment, your not the first to say oof focus but it must be my eyesight, as it looks in focus to me. I used a tripod and an aperture of F16 (if I remember rightly)

I get what you mean with your take on the theme but the image is very flat.

I know, this is a very lazy photo, but the theme seemed so vague to me I couldn't get excited about it so...post something and look forward to the next theme
 
Hi crit the same as above fits the theme and yes some themes are very uninspiring but you could have made a little more effort with what you have,
never mind on to the next one
 
Not keen on this. Sorry. I feel it is just a photo of a phone screen although I get what you are saying about the connection to the theme - all this text speak is a totally different language.
 
Hi Colin

Ending fits the theme , nice to see the drivers face thought the visor , good lowish pov :)

CRit....a little under exposed , a slight brighten & some nifty work with the clone tool could lose the white sign on the building , the person in front of the brown door & the girly to the rhs which would tidy it somewhat & keep your attention on the main subject s

Thanks for your comments, its nice when someone makes constructive criticism, rather than criticism with nothing to offer
 
Fits well for the theme and the composition with the racers coming towards the finish as they should be. A little under exposed but should be fairly easily sorted in PP if you shot RAW. The low POV also fits well (y)
 
As already stated could be improved with a tweak to exposure. Nice low angled PoV.
 
Works for the theme. Not too sure on the composition as finding it hard not to look at the OOF grips as the Apple is too far off to the right. I like the use of DOF and the Tape on the apple is nicely in focus. I think if you cropped out some of the LH side and a bit more space on the RH side. Also tweak up the exposure a touch.
 
I love the idea off this, good take on the theme. I do find my eyes wandering over to the oof grips. I think maybe a tweak with the composition, by moving the apple more to the left side of the frame may give the image more impact for me.
 
excellent idea and nice dof. agree about the setup slightly not right maybe a greener apple would have drawn the eye more.
 
Good idea Colin, works for the theme (y) good dof, focus on the tape measure. A slightly different composition and a red apple might have worked better for me :)
 
Hi, works for the theme and a good idea the composition needs a little work though
the apple is to far to the right for the main point of the theme, maybe a little more off the left crop wise
 
nicely lit, like the almost Selective Colour feel to the image, agree the apple needs more space. Overall is fine, just need the frame moving down and right a bit. (right more than down!)
 
Hi Colin


that shot has big potential with a few tweaks....the idea is great as are the items included in it...love the tape measure wrapped round the apple (y)

Smidge more room to the right , boost the apple color a smidge & use a reflector to bounce some light back on the rhs of the apple which would probably have the added bonus of softening the shadow at the back as well ....simples :)
 
Ending - Definitely fits the theme although the image is a bit busy (a wider aperture would have helped) and certainly underexposed.

Positive - Much better image. I agree about needing more space on the right hand side but a great idea nonetheless.
