This is not what I had planned for B/W, but the weather was not cooperative with the location I planned to shoot at- pouring down rain - so I tried a high contrast approach in hopes of giving a few chuckles for the voters. I don't expect a lot - hopefully I will get 5.5-60, but expect it to come in around 5.

Adjusted levels, USM, Crop, brightness/contrast, adjusted hue saturation to B/W, flatten image, image resize

I really like this image. I am surprized that it didn't rank higher. Nice job!

Rather stark, but, um, making me crave a cookie ;-)

Like the idea but the focus seems a little off.

This is really cool. ..unfortunately, I have to mark you down because I now have a sweet tooth and will probably go indulge myself and it's all your fault for having such an enticing photo :) (juuuuuuuust kidding!!!!!)

I really do like it alot. It's clean and sharp, and the composition of the cookie being half eaten is perfect! A genius display of creativity in taking the simple and making it awesome!

I like where you are going with this. Consider a bit less contrast perhaps, as shadow is nearly indistinguishable (sp?) from cookie.
