 Yeah, this sucked. I was in a hurry & threw this together just minutes before the deadline ended which was stupid (this was actually my lunch for the next day & in that regard was a great success). The lighting is crap & the image is waaaay too busy - I honestly don't know what compelled me to submit this! Another lesson learned...

it's o.k. I wish the whole plate were in focus since the cucumbers adn oranges seem like part of the subject, not just the end of the roll-up.

I think this is nice, but I'd like to see it on a plainer plate.

If the roll up was the main component I would rather it was in sharp focus than the melon.

Personally, I am not a big veggie fan, but your image looks really good. I like the composition, lighting and colors.

Could definitely use a color bump, but it looks like a nice composition.

stunningly vibrant colors and composition is very good. i wish you had used a plain or simple(only with border) plate though. busy-colorful-printed plate competes with the food for attention.

A nice pleasing arrangement. DOF is good. I think I'd like a bit more lighting on the front, but overall well done. Good luck!

Nicely done and well composed. My only nit is there's more light on the rear of the plate than in the front and that makes for an unbalanced image.

Why am I hungry now? mmm

this is a really good looking meal. Composition and colors are also good. The plate (color and pattern) distracts to me

the colors aren't looking that great to me, also the plate is too busy and is taking away from the food itself
