There's Always Room for Jelloby

I really like this shot. I think it looks yummy and I think it's also well done.
The smoothe shiny texture of the jello seems like it would be difficult to properly light and look good. However, I think you did an excellent job with it.
I do like the lighting. There is only a small part that is giving off a glare from lighting, and that's to the left of the photo. Not an enormous problem, but something worth mentioning.
I like the idea of backlighting, I think that could be interesting. It could produce more dramatic lighting for this shot, and probably make it seem like more than "just a shot of jello".
Focus and clarity seem good to me. I have the hardest time capturing textures properly, expecially smoothe ones, and we get a lot of detail out of the jello, even though it is smoothe. We can see all the little cut marks and even a few bubbles.
The color is good. Definately green. Fits the challenge. I like how it's not all the SAME exact green. Probably due to the lighting, there are some darker places, and lighter places. This makes it so it's not all just one big blob.
Overall a nice subject for the challenge in my opinion.
