I don't feel that this has anything to do with the challenge.

nice arrangement of the food mann...I like it~!

Its a stretch to make the subject but, a very nice food shot ... good use of background ... couldn't you have chosen some more attractive carbs ?

Thanks for the touch of humour !

I have attempted to take photos with this basic setup and composition. I know getting the details right is really challenging. Points for degree of difficulty. IMO this would have been better if the subject wasn't so brightly exposed and the background so darkly exposed. There are some blown highlights on the edge of the plate that distract somewhat. I might have chosen a different placemat, or possibly used a wood table. The centered composition is only partially rescued by the single chopstick (?) I don't personally believe the photo meets the challenge but I understand your logic and have ignored the challenge relevance issue. Sorry if this sounds negative, I'm not trying to be hurtful. But maybe it'll help for your next photo.

Good concept. Too much light on the rim of the plate. White balance is a bit too bright.

I like the idea, but the picture itself is a bit flat. Maybe a bit of an angle or an assymetrical layout on the plate. The dark background is nice because it highlights the lighter coloured food.

I gather you don't follow the diet anymore?....did it help anyway????
I like your humor, I'll rate it a 7.

I think this would have looked better at an angle. It is very centered and too much light on the noodles and crackers. Kind of washed them out to make them look rather unappealing.

this doesnt seem to have anything to do with the challenge

I apologize for that! I don't think I read the title... carbs obviously!
Sorry again

Can't help feeling this is a photo of a photo because of the shine on the plate's edge and the lack of color and texture of the food hope I'm wrong..

clever. i like the background a lot.
06/29/2005 09:54:13 AM
Clever! It seems a little out of focus to me though.
