I liked the different textures but I wasn't crazy at the angles I shot fom (all in the middle of feeding two kids lunch--not the most optimal shooting time)

so here ya go...does it help or still leave you hanging

Thnaks for looking and giving your input

I like both shots. The cropped shot almost has an abstract look to it. The bowls are recognizable, but it's difficult to tell where it is without your telling us. I really like the lighting and the composition of this one.

I like the original because you can see it in context. You can see the edge of the sink, you can tell that that highlight in the upper left corner is water from the faucet. I can see why folks like it. But I still like the cropped version as well. :-)
