Well, I think that there will be a lot of other people using this as their overused phrase, but that's ok. I like advanced editing rules much better; I would like to have at least been able to dodge and burn a few choice places, but I suppose I got spoiled with my first challenge entry. I am guessing that this one will score much lower than my first, but we'll see. Also wanted to note that the bowl filled with mostly alphabits was way boring, so I had to bring captain crunch to the rescue.
here's my after challenge try:

You asked for comments on low scores (4 from me). The competency of the picture is fine - it's in focus, well put together, I don't have to squint at it and so on. I guess I'm more than a little hung up on the principle of pictures being visual things and depending on a visual language. Taking a picture of a word (or acronym) spoils that. So there is self fulfilling prophecy in your alphabeti spaghetti there...
Personally I think your image finished in a predicatble position.
It's a competent image of a fun concept but nothing extrememly "wow" about it. A good effort overall.
yeah, I agree. I was estatic that it finished as high as it did... I was sure that I was going to get pounded with a few things, I'm just wondering what other people saw... (the same stuff as me? or something I didn't notice?)
Yup gotta agree, gave it a 1!!!

Just kidding! :) Like the shot and composition and DOF, just think it could use some more contrast, seems a bit flat as it is.
Very creative! Very nice colors and I really like the focus (and how the bowl kinda fades out of focus at the top). One of my favorites of the challenge. Good luck!
Funny and perfectly executed. This is really well thought out, even put a bright colored cereal in the bowl that would really make the spoon stand out from it. Excellent!
