lol...you'll have to excuse me..I've just seen the movie "Troy"
Would've title this one, "Addressing his troops".
Nice shot, very imaginitive, good use of lighting, dof, and subject positioning.

I feel the same way sometimes :( The kiss by itself actually looks depressed. Very creative and well done. 10

Interesting idea. When I first saw it I thought it would suit something more towards Viagra...but then that is where the depression could come from. the light is too harsh on the right, and I think that the focus could be just a touch sharper on that poor guy on the right. It seems that is just a touch behind the area of interest. Not totally sure but I feel the WB could be adjusted a little too, seems a bit muddy, throughout.

Wow! Very well done. Great idea. Well executed. I wonder if a different background than the off-white (paper?) would make it even better? It kind of makes the image feel like it has a yellowish color cast. 8.

Excellent composition. I even like the DoF - but normally would complain about the soft focus on the near objects. My biggest problem is the color cast of the (incansecent?) lighting. It would work much better if the light were whiter...

Dof is right for this, as is the lighting.
One of my favorites in this challenge!

I love the mood on this one. It's almost depressing, yet humorous. I can't tell if the graininess I see is the actual chocolate itself though.
It definitely made me smile. :)

Aaaaaw poor little melted mite! Lighting a little poor and too much banding. Is this over compressed?

I like the idea but this would have scored better with me if it had more depth of field, more of the subject needs to be in focus

Ahhh... somebody give the little guy a hug!
Very creative and I like the lighting. The paper the chocolates are sitting on is a little distracting though - I would have liked to see something smoother. I'm giving you a 9 anyway. You have managed to make chocolate emotive which is no small task at all!

Nice use of focus and lighting to draw attention to the subject. The dark shadows are a little distracting. Very clever placement of the isolated "kiss".. I actually feel sorry for it :) 8/10

LOL awww poor bud ... look at him moping! Funny how even chocolate buds can portray emotion! Anyway, love the creativity, lighting is OK, focus is a bit off, I think contrast is a bit low. The quality of this image is OFF for some reason. 5
