Remake of a submission I did for the Still Life challenge - although this time I got to clean up the chocolate with the Advance Editing rules. Lot of touch up work on this one (as chocolate does not come out of the packaging unmarred). I also have a softbox I was able to use this time (instead of a napkin over a desklamp). Hopefully this one will score better than the last entry.
Did you notice the chocolate is floating over a lake of chocolate syrup?

First night of voting I ran across your image and thought to myself that this one had to be in the top spots for sure. Excellent lighting and composition, congrats on your top 10 finish!
Elegant lighting and presentation :)
Only nitpick may be the walnut in the chocolate. It's kind of distracting in the composition. Perhaps seeing the bottom bar partially immersed(just a tad, to give that cool effect that the walnut has) would be perfect. Overall this is very nicely done.
Coming back to this again, I quite like the shadow cast of the chocolate bar on the melted chocolate.
