really really nice shot, very well lit with a very distinctive and attractive background. Lighting is superb with a nice visable backlight.

But....relevence to the challenge is so thin it's wafer thin. "Capture an image representing money". I am sure she does cost you some cash (especialy this time of year) but as an icon representing money it's way off.

Best shot of the challenge though - personaly i would have kept it and submitted to the best of december open challenge.

nice shot, but shame the fingers are so out of focus when the cards are pin sharp.

The plate is dirty which ruins this image. Spot editing isn;t allowed, but cleaning it before hand would have been a better option.

The fork is also pixelated.

Meal looks tasty! and interesting composition. Well exoposed with balck & white being so dominating.

Sorry, but this will get panned I think. All you have done is take a picture of someone elses work.

The title is also bad "do fought " doesn't make sense.

The composition leaves a lot to be desired too, why include the pole on the right? I see you tried to get the flag in which is very nice, but the top pole is very distracting and ruins the image.

On the plus side, the color is quite nice if a little over staurated. Nice as a photo, but not in a challenge.

bad points the grey area at the top left. the ditracting background buildings.
Good points great superb perfect contrast. i hate those wishy-washy white images that 99% of people do. This is just my taste. Nice and sharp also.
Overall Score 5
