Broccoli tastes good (one of my favourite foods too) and in this photo, it looks great!
Well done :-)

LOL!

Whoever would have thought that Brocolli could be this interesting?
Nugar09-May-2004 23:21
Thanks for your words, Techo :)

Lovely color and sharpness :-) Believe it or not, one of my favorite foods. - Techo

Thanks Pops! I also cropped as suggested by Don and it indeed looks better.
Guest 09-May-2004 00:12
Yea, what Don said. Delicious photo!

Nice idea!

Delicious photo... I assume the bright light is the broccoli train headed straight for the hot water tanker on the same track... the bright white light before entry into vegetable heaven, as it were. Because of the lateral movement, at least in my vision, you might experiment with cropping it in a 3:2 ratio rather than the standard 4:3... if not on this shot, then keep it in your hip pocket for future shots. Besides making people think you have a DSLR, in this case, if you started from the top left, it eliminates the darker bit at the bottom that keeps pulling my eye down. In any case, a lovely photo.

Gracias Jose Pablo! I'll take care of the spot in a few minutes, good catch! And hope to see some of your entries soon.

Estoy impresionado, Nugar!! Tus tres fotos son excelentes y se ve como has ido mejorando con cada challenge que pasa. Me inspira a seguir intentandolo de mi parte, pero no he tenido mucho tiempo libre ultimamente. Definitivamente tengo que comprar lámparas como las que mencionas e intentar tomar fotos como estas. Desde el punto de vista del *, justo en el margen derecho veo una pequeña "mancha" de color gris, que estoy seguro que puedes clonar fácilmente a color negro. Felicitaciones nuevamente!! - José Pablo.
PS: For the rest of you guys, I'm sorry for the Spanish. I just wanted to give a little extra touch of "internationality" to the challenge.

Thanks both! Paul, yes the highlights are blown; I have another one with the highlights a little less blown, but then that green translucid glow was lost.

Excellent! Good color, sharp, great depth. The water droplets are a nice touch. The only thing I would watch out for are the highlights, they're a little "hot."

Nugar, I need to get one of those fancy studios also. 8-) Great job! theFly
