Greetings from the Critique Club!
What a clever answer to the challenge topic! Pi is represented in so many ways in this image that not only does it meet the challenge but one could guess the challenge topic without knowing it. Love the title, too!
What strikes me most about this image is the puzzle it poses. I like the ideas in the image more than the image itself. The composition holds all the elements but I'm not fond of the mergers with the frame in the upper left and right corners--one maybe, but not both. I guess I'd choose to bring the cookie into the picture entirely to help preserve the concept of circle it conveys.
The lighting feels odd to me, as well, on two points. The color balance feels off...somehow too blue in parts and yet there appears to be a yellow light source too. Secondly the shadows...or near lack of them. The lighting provides some definition of shape on the cookie...but that is lost on the chopsticks especially where they meet near the block. I think lighting may be the one most important element holding this image back.
Overall, a clever concept competently executed. Keep shooting and entering! |

To describe myself, I'd switch them around: "Your passion is mathematics, but your destiny is photography."
Great shot! I love that the number trails past the normal boundaries of the fortune : ) |

| Cool idea. I think the lighting lets this image down though. With more inventive lighting, and correct white balance, this could be a winner. This also looks a little overprocessed with the contrast and sharpening. |

| i really like this idea. the light is a bit unbalanced, and there seems to be a bit too much grain, but nice composition. |

| I love it. The compostion is great and the strong geometric shapes really work with the subject. I like how the chopsticks are remeniscent of a compas and the cookie has that circle with a missing sector look. I hope that was intentional :-) |

Really a good Idea. But the photo is bit noisy and the white background is too
dull. It should be brighter. Overall a good composition |

LoL, I like this one. Dang if the type doesn't look like the real thing from a fortune cookie! Can you believe I have Pi memerized to the 50th place? I decided to do it in honor of March 14...
159265358979323846264338327950288419176939937510. phew.
