Beautiful composition framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques and sharp focus.

This makes me think of Halloween, getting a bowl of candy ready for the trick or treaters , your title suggests that this is salt water taffy, but this is a bowl of tootsie pops! This was a favorite of mine as a kid! I love all of the colors and the white sticks! This is well focused, clear to view and well exposed, colors and tones are natural. Well composed and presented! Best wishes to you in the contest!

A grand entry into the competition posted here! Your fine full and central composition makes a very attractive image. I am very tempted to pick up one or two of those nice looking sweets! Exposure and sharpness are good. Nicely done!

Good composition as a totally asymmetrical design contained or framed in a round bowl on a rectangular or square table.
Lots of sweets colorfully wrapped with their little handles pointing in every direction.
Nice details and textures.
Good sharp focus.
Good angle of view-face down in the candy. I think I gained 5 pounds just looking at it.

Comment from Renate-Bertodi


Taffy seems to me to be a very Angloish name mixed with Indian pronunciation, which is something of its own thing. Asian sub continent sweets are a thing of their own, very unlike the British version, which is mainly sugar, colour and water.. who knows where the name originated from.. with all those years of British rule.

    taffy is the english name for the Welsh.. all nations have a sort of name- kraut for germans, wog for black people, wop for Italians etc The superiority of Empire rulers..

Very interesting shot! The rainbow of colors is eye-catching and the white sticks really stand out and add a chaotic feel. The bowl and background being almost the same muted color helps your subject really pop. And salt water taffy! Thank you for some childhood memories!

Aptly captured for the contest theme... Excellent choice of subject.

Creative concept. Innovative approach. Imaginative presentation.
Nice notes.

Subdued lighting.
Pin sharp focusing.
Compact square format framing.

Best of luck in the contest!
