 A simple cookie dunking...nothing better for an afternoon snack! Its been a long time since I shot anything for DPC an this idea came to be while I was looking for something to have for lunch! I converted it to Black & White because it just made sense with the colors involved in the shot.

this seems a bit busy to me. I think to improve composition i would have taken out the milk bottle and oreo package and left just the cup and the oreos so that the focus was on those things and the moving hand would stand out better. cute idea!

There's a fine line between "in motion" and "blurry," and yours is on the latter end. I love the idea, and the contrast is great. I think the crop is a little too tight on the bottom, but it works alright.

Yummy! Very nice composition, and I love the PP.

The composition adds some interest and the tones are good. While it meets the challenge it doesn't feel like a still life to me. It's more of a candid capture or a staged one.

Good idea but rather poor execution

Oh that is fun!!!! I love it!

I'm such a sucker for black and white images that have a lot of contrast. :-) I like your composition, too.

very nice simple and effective image - the choice of b/w is good. How many oreos did you get to eat?

Very nice! Definitely one of the best in this challenge and one of my most favorites! If its not in the top 3, I'll be surprised. 10

I'm hungry even in B&W. The movement and the limited DOF really work well. I don't know what the white object is in the left third of the photo but it seems to call attention to itself.
