If you have a taste for the finest....insist on it !!

This appears to be painstakingly well set up. I think maybe the food looks just a touch over-saturated (check out the cheese) although that might be helping it to look half way appetising. You've also fulfilled the advert part of the challenge - in spades. Could you have left the colour on the roses? It would make for a pretty positive association...
Anyway, as much as it hurts my principles to appreciate the lauding of these products, I have to go to 7 on this because it's so damned well done and thought out. Oops! it just went up to 8 - that's inflation for you...

Fast Food (no-more)

This is an envelope pusher, which may not be a reason to give higher scores of itself, but the textures, lighting and composition are superb. 10

I can't say it's appetising, but you've done well with the colours here. Maybe a polariser or bounced lighting to dampen those highlights?

I voted this for an OOBIE because it specifically pushes the envelope of the challenge genre 'street photography' - bon, ben...

Decimated downtown. Only the flowers are alive.

Excellent shot. Ya boo etc to the nay sayers. I think I might have tried to rotate so the fence, or maybe just that main pole, is parallel to the edge - the crookedness looks accidental.
Very much a legitimate social documentation photograph in the spirit of street photography in my arrogant humble opinion.

SÃ¥ lite oppmuntrende vi er her da.

Synd, når dette er et ganske godt bilde. Skarphet, komponering, lys- og fargebalanse osv er helt ok.

Problemet (i forhold til evaluering her) oppstår sannsynligvis rundt det uttrykket 'still life', som ikke vil si 'stillestående liv'. På norsk heter det 'stillben', og er oftest et bilde of ubesjelet (?) ting ordnet for komposisjonens skyld - gjerne frukt og blomst i klassiske malerkunst, men her kan det òg bare være ting som er stilt opp av kunstnerens hånd for å lage bilde.

Skytt au. Folk leter kanskje etter svake grunn til å domme ned. Prøv neste challenge.

For this alone you deserve a mess of credit. Congrats.
