Congrats on winning. I didn't have time to vote, but you won my #1 spot! I knew an Asian inspired dish would win. Their recipes are an artform.
Just curious, I tried a recipe like this once (and I love Asian foods of all varieties) and when I tasted it, it came out inedible. I am a good cook and so since that time I have shyed away from rice paper recipes like this. I made a shrimp rice paper roll with cilantro, shrimp and something else. Does this have nice flavor? |

Thank you all..
I really worked hard on this shot. And since it combined my two main passions cookery and photography, I had a wonderful time. |

| Great composition. The spring rolls are nicely framed by the garnishes and chopsticks. |

| Dynamic shot with nice design elements. Composition could be tighter, cropping closer to top of chopsticks. Flat lighting removes some of the appetising features of the subject. [6] |

| Excellent food styling. I like the white plate on white background, but I wish the back edge of the plate was a little more distinct like the other three are. This definitely looks like something you might see in a food magazine or recipe book which utiliizes this "style" of imagery. |

Beautiful presentation. I love how the rolls are sliced on the diagonal and stacked. Not too sure about the plate disappearing into the bckground, but it didn't distract too much.

| Nice high-key effect of the spring rolls against the white tray. My sense of improved composition from the spills shifts back and forth with a feeling that they detract from the photo - the way your vision does with an optical illusion. |

| I love any type of Asian food!!! This one tops the list for me. I could be an ass and score this really low cosidering my score is so high. But im a good sport. I can tell you spent alot of time on this. As did I on mine. I cant wait to see the recipe. The bright white background really pushes this photo in an almost 3-D image. The Black chop-sticks really set a accent to the photo. Great composition, Great lighting, I really dont see anything wrong with this shot. Good Luck. 10 |

| Looks wonderful, great colors, they really jump off of ther white plate. The only problem I see is the plate melts into the background in the right rear corner and the back edge. MAYBE a background other than white would help. |

| Wow very vivid! The colors are marvelous. The setup is crisp and clean. I like the fact that spring rolls for the most part have the lion's share of the focus. Artfully arranged, which increases the interest. The only thing I find off is the white on white look. I think keeping the white plate - so the decor stands out would be good, but a different background. Maybe a red to tie in with the peppers and would still show off the white plate/rolls and the black chopsticks. Otherwise the plate blends too much for my tastes and gets lost. Outstanding all the same. 9 |

| Maybe take off a little from the top (crop it). I really like the strong, realistic colors of the food on the pure white dish and background, excellent. The chop sticks also add "strength" to the shot. 8. |

| I think you did a really nice job shooting white on white. The chop sticks really stand out nicely, and add to the photo in my opinion. The food it's self looks really discusting. Just not my kind of food, but I won't count that against you. :) The layout is really nice. I like the splash of green to the left, I think it works well with the dark chopsticks. I'm not really sure about the orange spattery stuff around the food, kind of looks unorganized in the midst of the organized setup. I would have given the plate just a slight bit more room on the left, as the plate is not centered enough to be a centered shot, however, not off center enough to create any dramatic angle or anything. Looks like an error. Overall, and nice shot. ~Heather~ |

| Nice presentation, lovely Black Chop Sticks and crockery but I would have prefered to see more definition in the crockery by the use of perhaps a Navy Blue table cloth or something darker under the plate as it sems to merge too much , apart from that its excellent. |

| Really nice shot but i wouldd have liked to see more of a horizon line by seeing the back and right side edge of the plate just a little more shadow .the chopsticks are a bit to jarring. really nice |

| Nice image! Great focus (a little hard to see much detail in the lime though) and DOF! Nice selection of colors. I would have used a slightly different color for plate or background. I'm distracted from the image by trying to find the edge of the plate especially in the background. |

| Might not be able to vote. Wanted to leave a note. I really like the cleaness of this, the composition and colors. The missing back edge of the plate is the only thing I don't like. Maybe a different base color would have worked better. I apologize if this is what you intended. |
