Though technically well done (maybe a bit too light) this image is boring because there is no focal point, no center of attention, no leading lines to give me a hint where I am supposed to look. The viewers eyes will wander around for a few seconds, find nothing to pay attention to and think "I'm done, next picture". In a contest like this where the voting is done very fast, you want something of importance to make the viewer linger long enough to notice that the focus is indeed very good and the food is fresh and probably would taste good. 5

Nice colours. Focus is a bit softer than it should be. A tripod would help.

I love this stuff, especially with bow-tie pasta in it. The only think I don't like about this salad is that it always looks dirty and I want to clean it, LOL! This is a wonderful shot, great colors, you can see everything involved and the dressing on the right and left look like tye are suspended. The only thing that gets me is the stray peice of cheese and meat at the bottom, I know nit picky but they keep calling my attention away from the rest of this delicious salad! A 9 from me :)

Great celebration of color! I like the free presentation - a rigid bowl isn't seen. The lighting works well. 7

I would have liked to see such a dog portrait taken low down from the front or front 3/4 angle.
