A Flying DESSERT

Cute. You may want to try a crop with the fruit in upper right giving it more negative space to fly into. Lighting is good and the overall effect of it flying is believable. - 6

Yes this is a closeup of a scorpion, but the setting does not imply 'dessert'. Overall focus is soft and the lighting a little harsh. - 6

Triangulation of composition is always strong. Yours works nicely. I do however feel the overall shot is soft in focus. This is perhaps due to a wide aperture. I would think if you're wanting to include items farther back in the shot, you'd want to close down the aperture, lengthen your shutter time and use a tripod to get the image as sharp as possible. - 6

Interesting combination.

Technically, good colors, but you have blown some of the highlights on the ice cream. I also feel that too much sharpening has been done in post processing. Overall composition is fine. - 6

Good attempt at a studio shot. The lighting seems decent enough, but may be a little flat. The blacks in this shot seem more gray. Perhaps adjust your levels to bring down your tones some to add more contrast to the shot. - 6

Perfect exposure on this shot. The composition is weak. I think that you've included too much space at the bottom that doesn't add to your shot. The reflection, although nice, isn't strong enough to justify its inclusion. You also have a tilt in your horizon, not enough to be 'artistic', but too much to seem on purpose. - 6

Nice natural light shot. Unfortunately I can't make out what the food is on the plate. Composition isn't too bad, maybe too many items in the shot. Sometimes less is more. - 6

Mainstay of southern cooking. Not so whacky down here. Overall good exposure. Composition isn't overly interesting and the lighting doesn't add anything dramatic to the image. - 6

Unique concept. The placement of the fish in the nest is a whacky location, but fish in itself, not so whacky. You have exposed this shot perfectly and the centered composition works nicely. Bump to an 8.

Nice studio shot. Nothing overwhelming here. I don't think the centered composition works for this shot, especially with the shadow falling to the left. I think more space on the left for the shadow would make a more balanced composition. I also think your exclusion of the top of the gord weakens the composition. - 7
