I agree with everyone else, especially Melanie... showing a cookie or two (would drive me batty) but would look great with the textures and added umph! Great idea though!!!

I would also suggest perhaps laying a few of the actual cookies on the counter and focusing on them rather than the box.<br /><br />I think your lonely bell pepper would have been perfect!<br /><br />Good job!

Also, making the box more off-center, or lean it against something so that it's angled. Or just take the shot from a different angle instead of straight on. A color boost could help, too, to make it stand out a little more (Samoas should <I>never</I> just blend in). :)<br /><br />All that said, I think this is a great idea for "one." I wish I had a box sitting around.

Editing can make the difference for sure.<br /><br />For this box picture I might have choosen a more level shot maybe having the box turned slightly so you can get the edge and side plus the front just to make it different.<br /><br />As for the pepper that would have been great. You could get down on its level and get fairly close so it fills the frame and see what kind of detail you get with the leaves of the plants or on the pepper itself.<br /><br />I think this is a good picture though and who doesnt love girl scout cookies!

NOw, I think you did a pretty good job with getting the focus on the box and having the background blurred. What camera are you using? Do you know what your settings were? That would make it a little easier to help. Also, did you do anything in editing?Candacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13429938149745694810noreply@blogger.com
