Used a black backdrop, and lighting was a 100w lamp directly above it with a flashlight shinning from the left. Then I went crazy on it tweaking the saturation, levels, and a combo of Smart Blur, Unsharp Mask, Blur, USM, again to get the texture it has. Not sure if people will like it or not. :)

this seems really pixeled to me. I don't know if this was done on purpose, but it isn't my preference. The focus and clarity are ok I think, but with the pixelated texture, it's almost hard to tell. Lighting is nice, no distracting shadows or dark spots. I like where the shadows lay. good luck in the challenge.

Great capture, a little bit out of focus though. The crop is good.

looks like could be beautiful but something happened in your post processing and it's too pixelated :). 7

I love your style. This has an older, fun feel to it. The focus is really off - I think you may have oversharpened it, but I'm sure the original is phenomenal.

Lovely photograph that you've created.
Lighting is very good the way you've illuminated the sugar from above and from the side.
Focus is very good on the whole subject matter. Excellect background color.
Great visual impact.

It would be nice to have the sugar container more in detail.
