Hey there from the Critique Club
Camera Work/Technical: I think your soft focus hurt your score with this image. Studying the capture, it looks like a glamour-type soft filter of some sort was used. While it gives the image a appealing look, I think that it serves as more of a distraction than anything else. Looking through your previous comments, it seems that the voters felt the same way.
Lighting: Overall, the lighting is fairly even and nice, but the highlight at the top of the glass is a bit distracting. It competes too much with the viewer's eye, thus pulling the eye away from the meat of the composition.
Composition/Content: I really like the idea, and the sticky relation is easily made. However, I would like to have seen this one with a longer trail of chocolate. With short stream abruptly dropping out of the frame, you also cause the viewer's eye to drop right out with it. With a looser crop, you would have allowed the eye to flow more through the image rather than right out of the frame.
My Opinion: I believe that you did a nice job meeting the image is a very creative manner. I think with a more crisp focus and a litter better lighting, this one would have pulled a much better score. Even with the adjustments that could have been made, I think the 4.7 is a little low.

| I love the composition on this shot, though it might have been better if it were sharpened a bit. |

| Needs more work on the lighting. Also, it may have looked better from a different angle. |

| Clever idea marred somewhat by bad lighting (reflections of florescent ceiling lamps?) |

| I don't care for the gaus. blur effect (that's what it looks like to me, I'm still learning) Causes the rim to look out of focus. |
