Default Corn

I took this a few weeks ago. The corn looked so good at the grocery store. I saw some again when I was shopping today and it reminded me of this photo, so I thought I'd get your opinions since I can re-shoot if necessary.


You can click the pic to see a larger version


ISO 200
1/2 sec
The EXIF says f/1 but that's not right... I might have taken this with a reverse mount... and I don't remember what aperture I used... sorry!
You can see more EXIF by clicking here

Thanks!

i don't think a reshoot is called for.....it's a terrific shot.....and the focus on the kernels is so crisp!.....if there's anything to be done at all....(and i'm always thinking in this direction).....it might be in post processing.....maybe popping it with the levels tool to give the colors more depth....

great shot!

ugh... on my monitor it looks low-res and quite blur.

Besides that, I love the composition and reflection from the corn.

Nice shot as is ,but it seems a little flat ,and IMO a little more depth & color would have made it even better .in photo studio i auto enhanced +1 unsharp upmask ,& composite +2 for a little added depth & color .
