a little oversharpened .. could be an ad in a lunch menu at wendy's :) >. but i think what keeps this from being a truly excellent food shot is the lighting is a little too glarey. the turkey is a hair blown out .. maybe put tp over the light or move it back a little bit . i wonder what afew more shadows would have looked like? 7. mag99

Excellent sharpness and detail. Good tonal range. The textures pop out very nicely. The problem I have is that my eye tends to gravitate toward the bright section in the very center, but I don't feel that really serves well as a focal point. And with all the interesting things happening, I think it would've benefited from something to anchor it. (6) --JPerez

First, this is one this week that the tumbnail just doesn't do justice to. I like the fact that this fills the whole image. I like the spiral the eye takes you in, though it gets lost a bit on the far right side where the meat is cropped out. I think I might like to see a hair more there and a hair more on the bottom to strenthen the spiral effect.

I think that the circle of the carrots compliments the circle of the spiral as well -- it both takes part in the larger shape and speaks of it's own shape at the same time.

The colors work very nicely and in fact are making me quite hungry. I like the variety of textures present. The cool, flat sunburst of the carrots, the crinkly crispness of the lettuce, the softness of the meat.

The lighting is very well done, and my only nitpick there is that I really like the glare off that bit of fat in the center, but the bright white on the meat makes it look some texture. This is a NITPICK, it's something I would burn in a sec longer in a darkroom, but not a flaw in the photo.

Overall, very nicely done. 8, just-married.

Interesting. I think this is a good shot. Just a few things...It seems to be overly sharpened or contrasted. Also, the light is washing out the meat in the center. The black backgroung is good and the detail is good as well. 6

That looks really good. I like the angle and the focus and clarity are awesome. The detail of the wrap is great. I like how the background is simple. Black. The angle and framing is very nice. Great job and good luck in the challenge. ~hbunch7187~

That looks good enough to be in a food magazine. Good colors and lighting. May be a touch too bright in the very middle, but not bad. karmat
