Focus and glare are not good. Good idea but poorly executed.

If you'd twist it slightly the glare spots would have made a smiley-face in the center. Otherwise, I think they're a little too big and distracting.

The plastic wrapping here adds some interest and a feeling of sterility, as if it came from a hospital. It also makes the candy seem like something we can't get at; we can only look at it. I wish it were all in sharper focus.

The lighting is a bit too glarey on the plastic wrapping, but other than that good idea.

Very clear photo. Perhaps a little tightly cropped. The glare on the wrapper is on the harsher side (but it almost makes a smiley face, ask me, I'll point it out). Color seems pretty good. 7 Swash

i think the glare on the wrapper takes away from this photo

The celophane looks almost brown with the background as it is. That sort of ruins the contrast between the candy and the background.

Good focus, a little bright. Uninteresting composition.

A white balance adjustment here would possibly remove the yellow tint from the candy... nice closeup though :) - setzler

I like the simplicity of the shot. The focus and lighting are off a bit. Still in my top 20 this week. Well done.

White balance is off (it's yellowish). Use Levels/Curves to fix.

Light is just a bit too bright, but great composition, idea. Good going.

Beautiful! I like the sparkle - it almost looks like glass.

Not a big fan of the wrapper reflections, but I like the pic and crop.
