I had never heard of this idea before, and had to go look it up to make sure you weren't having a laugh!

Not sure black and white works great for food, especially sweets, it makes it somehow less appealing.

I'm not sure red and green are complimentary :)

Nice clean well lit shot, very stock like, kind of thing I can imagine hanging on the wall of a health food restaurant. 8.

Very nicely done. Great colours, lighting and textures. My only minor complaint would be that the cup is slightly out of focus, in which I mean it's neither properly in focus as a foreground element, or properly out of focus as a background element.

Other than that, really like it, and could well imagine it in a food magazine or advertising brochure. 9.

When I saw the change on the front page and noticed it was yours that was missing I wondered what on earth could have happened.

That's a real shame, I just did a massive tidy of my library and realised just afterwards that I had accidentally deleted a bunch of RAW originals and left the Photoshop edits, it's easily done. Mind you, mine didn't cost me a ribbon!

Sorry to hear about the loss of ribbon, I'm absolutely sure you'll make it back!

It didn't score well because it's too real, simple as that.

It's not a setup, perfectly pretty, macro / portrait / photoshop creation, it's a real journalist (very well captured) sporting shot.

This shot belongs somewhere else where people will "get it", not at DPC.

Really nice almost abstract image. I probably wouldn't have been able to tell what it was if it wasn't for the little lip in the middle of the focused slice.

Such an interesting looking place, I'll need to visit sometime.

Like the blue and yellow together, I think it could have been slightly improved by a direct front on angle rather than the slight side one you have just now.
