| Glad to see somebody use some balance and composition in their photograph. I am voting through this contest for the first time and I cannot look at some of these photos. This however, I like. White milk, black cookie, good balance, however, could use a little more detail on the right area of the cookie. |

Very cool concept and love the background! I think this could totally be worked on to make a good shot into a fab one. Of course these are just suggestions.
1) I would have used a real glass instead of a jar. Perhaps a taller, slim glass? Like some sort of a liquor glass (martini, screwdriver ect).
2) I don't know how many angles you tried shooting this, but I'm positive you could have gotten a better angle of that yummy oreo! :) Maybe by turning the glass counter clockwise, so that you'd get more depth of the oreo (and filling), and less of the staged cut to wedge it there.
3) I would have croppedi t differently so that it was a longer shot than wider; more of the glass of milk showing. I know you probably wanted the detail of the oreo to show, but I still think this would be possible with a farther away shot.
4) The light is glaring against the rim of the jar, and causing way too much distraction. I use my flash to a point, but if I can help it, I won't! I know it's tricky because you either need a VERY steady hand, or a tripod (which I have neither haha! I normally rig up some makeshift tripod lol). Then you can use a spotlight, a large flashlight or even a lamp with its shade off. If it's still creating too much glare, a white or light coloured sheet overtop of the spotlight will tone it down.
Anyhow, good luck in the contest!

| Good in a tech sense but lacks appeal graphically. 6 |

| Good pic, but you don't get to see much of the milk. |

| Like the black and white but the cut in the cookie is contrived and distrubing. |

| nice take on an old idea. Too bad the reflections on the jar threads are so distracting. |

| Nice set-up. Good lighting, focus and detail. It just looks like it is cropped a little too much at the bottom. Would like to see more of the milk glass. Now, I think I'll go raid the cookie jar. |

| Background is too dark, need more contrast between background and cookie. This appears to be some kind of bottle or jar, it would have worked better if it was clearly a glass of milk. Also the cookie seems overexposed. |
