I have'nt seen where are the toys and the game in this picture which is although very artistic.

From marlo.steed@uleth.ca:
Wow this was a nice image.  The plastic ball is particularly realistic.  The reflection in that front ball looks a bit odd.  When the other reflective balls don't have the same image being reflected. Still a stunning image.

From tigerhawk@stic.net:
I really like peices like this which present normal objects in dramatic circumstances. Very nicely done! I love your attention to detail, in partition with the bouncing ball that has the rainbow colored ribbon inside. Brings me back to my youth :) My only comment would be that the blur gets jagged for the distant jacks. I would have upped the sampling rate.

From rgow@lanset.com:
Your textures are (as usual) excellent. The depth of field blur here though IMO is too strong, and is very grainy on the farthest objects.

From jacoons@ameritech.net:
Points for realism, especially focal blur (although it appears a bit blotchy). 
The rubber ball looks especially realistic. Points for HDR lighting and effect, 
which I looked into per your link.

Nice close up.

This is not a complicated image, but it is one of the most beautiful.

From jouni@mikrobitti.fi:
Nice objects, but a bit far from the theme?

From bertram.henze@t-online.de:
Very convincing, I am even afraid to touch it - ouch! But seriously, I think this would be alright even without the focal blur.

Focal blur used to maximum effect. One of the best best of the round.

Nice DOF but it would be more effective on a different surface
Notable for composition
