This is an amazing image. Is it converted from colour? Clouds or smoke/steam?
It took me a while to find the bird, which in a colour image may have been annoying.
With this treatment it works quite well. 9

Loneliness

Wow.......... excellent use of light to set the mood. I love the way you used so little of the model. Even with that it is very obvious how they feel. I appreciate seeing minimalist B&W shots. 9

Outstanding. The nose down is a little soft, I think this should have been either sharp or soft, not a combination. Excellent use of B&W.9

THis is an exceptional image. Composition, use of highlighting everything about it.

This would not have worked as a colour image, IMO. 10

hmm, a unique interpretation of the challenge and ancient Greek warriors.
What is your intention with regards to the mood your setting?

One of my absolutely favourite dishes... I question the use of this patterned plate. It's a bit distracting. Very nice colour and focus.

Rice-Stuffed Cornish Hens

Comment:
Looks very inviting, and wow what a lot of work. There is so much going on in this shot I found it a little hard to focus on what is being presented. There is little definition to the actual hens in the shot. I would have left more space around the platter and chosen one theme to use as props,, the gourds and leaves or the crockery.6

Tasty!

Beef Goulash

You put cashews in your goulash? Can't wait to see this recipe. I would have left out the fork, it's a little distracting. Like the DOF. Seems a little over exposed. Nice composition.
