Without the title, there would be nothing here to indicate personification. I understand the drop is supposed to represent mouth-watering, but I wouldn't get that without the title. The image is decent, but DNMC IMO.

This was a very difficult challenge for your first entry on DPC. I hope you weren't discouraged by your score. I'd love to see more of your work. You'll see that some will score well and some won't, and it's not always a true indicator of your pictures quality. Sometimes the voters just don't get it, or they are in a hurry, or a lousy mood, or they don't connect with the subject. Keep trying, and you will learn a lot here.

love the eyes and the smile, but I think the blur on the skin is too heavy.

I love the colors, lighting, and especially the background. I'm sorry the foot is missing on the bottom.

Your friend is lucky to have you taking shots of her baby, especially fabulous ones like this. I can just see the walls of her house plastered with your photos in a couple of years.

This guy has great skin! I love the patterns on it. A really close shot would probably have scored better. But, hey, what are you going to cut out? The whole creature is so beautiful and interesting I'd like to see even more of him.

I really like the pattern set up by the three eyes and the three noses. That eye looks at you and looks at you and looks at you again. The more I look at it, the better I like it. Maybe that's why it didn't score as well as I think it should have - not much time spent during voting.

I like this a lot and gave it a 10. I could tell that the hands had been scanned, but some of the fingers actually looked like x-rays. It's a really cool creation. I like the theme and the great colors. You seem imprisoned by your identity. Interesting!

The eyes are lovely and clear. The image got a respectable score, but probably was hurt by the size of the eyes - taking up a little too much of the image area for minimalism. I think I might like this better if the sweater wasn't visible - just pure black, so it would look like a streak of light in the darkness. It makes me think of a good shot for a scary movie where a kid witnesses something from a hiding place.

Art

Nice minimal composition and color. The lighting is interesting because it actually creates an object of its own on the wall rather than lighting the subject. The image needs to be rotated ever so slightly, but that's not allowed under these new minimal rules. Probably the score was hurt by the fact that this is a picture of art and nothing else.
