It's certainly a very different idea. (Or was it just a way to sneak a flower shot in?) I suppose the combination makes some sense, both being lover's tools, and I can't argue with the choice of liquid (yummy, chocolat).

The colouring on the rose has the side effect of making it look somewhat wilted or aged, which is a pity (the petals are slightly wilted, it looks like, but with a different colour it might have not 'felt' that way). I'm okay with the large amounts of negative space but it makes the focal blur stand out quite a bit which is slightly (but only slightly) distracting.

One of the crispest pictures I've seen in a long time - great DoF and lighting. I like the bg color and the bits of chocolate are perfect. 9

Interesting. Clever of you to think of this

Not very appealing to be frank with you.

Great idea. A different background color might have been more effective to me.

Good to see that a flower has been incorporated into this challenge. Technically the shot looks great but the chocolate really doesn't look so hot sitting on the rose...... tell me, did you eat it afterwards...... perhaps you could market it as potpourri snacks, when the smell starts to fade you can eat the petals ;)
Seriously, nice shot... just not overly appealing in my opinion....... Good luck, Todd.

I love it! Though I would have used a white rose. Still top mark!

I am trying to decipher the meaning behind this image... what thought process led you to this? Just curious.

Why?!

Actually, when I saw this in the thumbnails, I wasn't at all enamoured. But, on seeing it full, I think it works very well.
