I like the layout and placement of the cookies and things. This is a very nice photo. I do see some neon-blue color around the right of the cinnamon sticks and cloves (?) that doesn't seem to belong, though. The upper left of the photo seems perfectly lit but as you go down and to the right it worsens. It gets darker and darker and the blue colors show up more.

Nice job, though. I gave this an 8.

Nice idea and composition. I'm kind of turned off by the blue against the brown cookies and cinnamon stidks; I would have chosen a different color.

Good try. There are some strange white marks in the lower left corner. Some of the cloves have lost out from your light source.

Nice. Did you use sunlight and incandascent lights? I think I would like it better without the blue overcast. You could maybe correct it by adjusting your color balance in your editing program and desaturating the blue and cyan channels a bit.

You not only tweaked my sense of smell but taste as well. Best of luck.

Very festive, certainly the kind of image I can imagine being used in seasonal articles in weekly/ monthly magazines.

Not a bad picture but somehow the warm colors of the subject clash with the cold color of the background. There is also a noticeable halos as a result of oversharpening.

Nice set-up.

I love the photo, but the blue tinge in the background is really distracting. Crystal clear light or white would be better. :)

Nice setup, but it looks like you used a little too much unsharp mask?

With those spices, i think that the cookies will taste those smeels. Myhaamm!

Is that plexiglass? It's a cute idea and the composition is good. The white marks/reflections are a little distracting but not overly so. I'm not sure if it needs a tad more sharpness or contrast. The bright light from the top right makes the background a little uneven and forces some shadows that are a little noisy. An additional light in the bottom right may have helped a little.
