Really powerful image. I like the contrasting textures. I think a border would top it off.

The dark space on the left really helps to push the subject out. I think the focus could be a bit sharper.

I love the brightness and colour of this image. The effect is bright and cheery. I would suggest that perhaps the right strawberry could be turned a little to show a bit more red. Also I would leave a little more white space on each side and add a simple border. Love the colour and texture though.

hmmm. I can't actually tell what it is. It is interesting however it doesn't grab my attention and I can't make the connection to the challenge. I'm curious to know what it is.

Good idea. I think a few simple things could really improve this image. A neater surface for the subject like a board or table top that wouldn't get ripples in it. I think if the image included more of the hand and a bit of the wrist it would balance the composition more. It looks like you used a flash making the lighting a bit sharp. I think a light setup to one side would create some interesting shadows across the surface and would reduce the white dots on the chocolates. I also would have focused the camera on the chocolates at the front of the shot. The way you placed the chocolates works for me creating a nice "random balance."

This image has a sort of fairytale feel about it. The colours work really well. I would have opened up the depth of field so that everything was in focus. I would also suggest that cropping it to include the whole hot chocolate bottle would help to balance the composition. I think the foreground elements work really well. You've achieved a "random balance" in the placement and colouring of these elements.

I like the colour combinations in this image. The light is a bit flat for my liking. I think a lower light could have added some more shadows and detail into the little white chocolates. I think the central composition works. I would have added a little more room all round and added a border.

The bright colours make a strong impact. Even the harsh lighting ads to the dynamics of this image. I would have cropped it to include only the three bags at the front and sharpened the focus a little.

I really like the overall golden colour. The focus seems a little too soft. I like the composition. I think a border would add to this image.
