cute

Great shot

The high res is really great.

This would also have worked in 'Holy Moly'

There is so much in this photo that you can't really say that the tyre is the main object.

Great photo and find.

A high res would be good so we could check the focus.

Nice collection of tyres.

what a delightful photograph.

Thanks for that explanation, makes all the difference. Love the background, make sit look all hot and smoky

perhaps a little too dark?

Nice photo

Wonderful

Great shallow DOF

You really want to touch this leaf.

Lovely warm tones and nice focus

I like the way the light green contrasts against the bark.

Yes that is better

The proportions are definitely not a consideration here.

Nice shot, but you may want to lighten it a little

wonderful photo

I'm not sure why you would worry about the print proportion, you photos can have any shape you like.
I would crop 1/3 off the top and 1/3 off the right.
This is of course only my suggestion and what you do is entirely up to you.
Good Luck

looks great

This one could be cropped a lot tighter, without loosing the story.

Between the cereal and the oil, this should keep you going.

great shot of the wheel, but the tyre is rather dark.

great, I can almost taste it

LOL, well done

You may want to lighten this a little as the tyre disappears into the background

well worn, well done

Congratulations on 1st place, that is a wonderful photograph.

Nice clean shot, lovely tones.

Congratulations on 1st place, it's a wonderful photo.

Congratulations on 1st Place, great photo.

Congratulations on 1st place, a great and different entry

Congratulations on 1st place, it's a beautiful photograph.

Well done, I don't think I'll bother having breakfast today

LOL, the theme did say to make it look less appealing and you succeeded, Perhaps crop it a little closer for all the people who can't be bothered looking at high res.

great shot

great find

well done

lovely colours and textrue

lovely

well done

Good DOF

Mod's comment "I would recommend keeping the ENTIRE image in sharp focus."
This is really beautiful, but might need more DOF

Nice idea, but DOF is too shallow

Lovely textures and colour

I think you may have desaturated it a little too much.

OMG, that is so disgusting. Well done
