The bright white of the table is a little harsh on the eyes, but the overall effect of white and black probably couldn't be done without that happening. Nice concept. Something bothers me about the framing, but I'm not quite sure what, like the cup should either be closer to one side or at the center, but I can't say exactly why.

A nice concept, and the eye is naturally drawn to it.

The Final Piece of ...

Comment:
A very nice idea, but not enough draws the eye to the final piece, other than the title. I would have suggested shooting from one side, going for a very narrow depth of field, to bring that piece into sharper focus, and the rest of the puzzle blurring out. Also, the left side seems a bit too bright, and glares somewhat.

That is a truly ugly shade. Was the ground really that color, or did you manipulate it? The orange ring is kind of nice, but the subject is too small to make out any detail.

Background is both harsh on the eyes and boring, and the mouse seems out of focus. Making the mouse a little bit larger might have helped.

Image seems slightly out of focus and the highlights seem blown on the light reflection, but the image reflection is nice, and the light against the background gives it just enough shading to make it interesting. Overall, it's a nice effect.

The shadow across the head is distracting, and the plain background somewhat tedious.

That's a really colorful tongue! The shot makes me smile, and wonder what the dog is thinking. I like the framing of this as well. Adding the eyes would have detracted from the image, I think, and there is enough texture in the background to keep it from being tedious.

A light, trying vainly to fill the darkness. I normally don't care for monotone backgrounds, but this works well.
