Tasteful use of 3D, and overall a very nice effect and entry.

Nice execution, the shelf seems really flat to me though, maybe another row of the wire supports behind it would pop it forward?

WOW. The background texture is just plain awesome but i have the same problem as Daivd. The shelf is too flat. Another row of wire supports (smaller - since further away) and a bigger drop shadow would make this real good.

Nice texture, but way to flat. Doesn't look like a shelf, but maybe a row of wire on the wall.

I agree about the depth. It would have tricky but way cool to have a mesh-like drop shadow.

Depth is fine...light source shows it to be a straight-on shot....just as all the other submissions. The difference is, this one far exceeds all the others...the best offering, by far!

This ain't bad. Nice texture. But it's too flat. There's no shadow, and I'm not sure the label fits.
But besides that, this is easily a top 6 entry.

Yes, I messed with all sorts of depth solutions but couldn't find one that work since it's a dead front shot. There is a drop shadow but it's not a BIG one.
As for the label, it's a plastic clip on label with a paper area for the text. if you look at it close up, you'll see what I mean.
