Here's a bit of an explanation:

This is the Olympic Park in Munich – photographed from a small hill in the middle of the complex, which is called Olympiaberg (which is far from being a mountain!). You can see the stadium with its tent-like roof, the TV tower, and the small lake. The whole thing was built for the 1972 Olympic Games and is now used as a park.

To achieve this effect, you used to have to create a panorama and then shape it into a sphere using "polar coordinates" in Photoshop. Now there are apps that do this in seconds. You just have to make sure that the ratio between ground/city/landscape and sky is roughly the same on both sides of the image; otherwise, you'll get an unsightly edge in the small globe.

The garnishes and placemat frame this nicely - and add a very appealing freshness. I'm with others in admiring food photography when it's genuinely visually appealing.

What a fascinating "tiny planet" application. I love it! Might need to try this with a panoramic of my own for this side challenge...I've never had much use for it in the past.

Good subject and well executed -- I like the amount of detail retained in the clouds.

The interplay of complementary colors and textures is exceptionally well composed in this shot. I find food incredibly difficult to light and shoot this well.
