This is one one my highest scores - but I'm having difficulty justifying it. I like it a lot, but just can't quite put my finger on why.

1) Graphically it's very strong - but I don't like the horizonatl pasta at the top.

2) The colors are great - but don't seem "photographically real.

3) Evidence of lighting is non-existant - no shadows anywhere.

But as I said - it's in my top ten - and that's what's important if you are looking for scores!

Does it all taste the same?

I really like the use of light in this image. The harsh light and lack of shadows emphasizes the only difference between the types of pasta: The Shape. My only suggestion would be that you could really go to town on the placement making it more formal and evenly spaced to really emphasize the lighting and composition. It is really powerful how you have made such a stark impact with such an everyday subject matter.

Nice lighting on this one. It looks like it was slightly oversharpened.

This is really nice. Good work reducing the shadows here - are the product on a light box/table?

I saw a picture just like this a few years ago from a different person. I am wondering if you got the idea from that.

composition is a little too symetrical to really work as a powerful still life, in my opinion.

Nice, the background is too blown out for my taste.

Lighting is too harsh, also looks a bit oversharpened. Idea is nice.

Very good. Only minor problems are the pinkish color near the bottom/corners and oversharpening

Looks like an intriguing advertisement, but doesn't say "choice" to me.

The backlighting is a little too bright and overpowering..good idea and still a good execution.

pretty good - I find the light a little boring, but I like the composition.
