Impressions

I like the symbolic band of brothers photo emblazened on the nurturing watercan offset behind the larger community of fruit. Nice lighting too,

I really like the pastel-like colors in this picture. The reflection is nice too.

You know, what really makes this picture is the handsome young fellow in the middle of the background photo. Good work. ;)

I love the idea of incorporating the 3 boys picture as a part of the still life. That says a lot about the artist. Family is very important.

The fruit looks good enough to eat, but my heart goes belongs to the picture of the boys. What a great idea to incorporate the family into the picture. That says a lot about Jonathan.

Great picture. It makes me want a piece of fruit. Of course the picture in the background is a nice touch as well!!

Can't really tell what it is about this photo - probably the lighting, don't know for sure - but it moves me deeply. The lights and shadows reach into my heart, slowing and intensifying its rhythm. Home. Maybe that's it; I've gone home again. Thank you.

Great picture! The big, beautiful colors of the world are so much easier to take in with loving family backing us up! Love the light and reflections too!

The depth and color of this picture is extraordinary and beyond comparison with the other entries. Shades and texture are phenomenally vibrant! When examined carefully, this is truly a magnificent entry and worthy of 1st place.

This photo strikes me as an anachronism and I like it.

I really like the reflection off of the window behind the bowl of fruit. Good job.

posted: 08/27/2008 by Libby

Very Nice - love the colors and reflections.

What a fabulous photo! I can sure see why it's one of the top entries! I'm so impressed with all aspects of it and would just love to taste one of those peaches! Putting the watering can with family photo in it adds a warm, nurturing touch which is quite a brilliant idea.

Very creative photo from an impressive young man!! GO Jonathan!!! (send me one of those peaches if you win!!! They look delish!!)
