 I don't know how to be a quality photographer, so I take bad pictures and submit them to be humiliated. This was the first thing I saw that made me think of texture when I heard about this challenge.

the slightly out of focusness bugs me a bit. seems a little high key (too bright)... allright but it lack interest.

I love Oreos. Good thing you didn't choose Vanilla Wafers though.....Focus could be stronger, but this is a great idea with a good choice on amount of background shown.

Texture nailed, but I think it would have been better on a different background. The plain white is just too boring.

Very competent studio shot - high-key background is perfect, detailing is perfect, lighting is pretty good, though perhaps just a touch harsh, direct. Don't get a sense of the srumbliness of the biscuit, it rather looks harder than that, which I think is a function of the harness of that main light (from the shadow, it looks like a standard shaded desk-light. Subject a mite dull though - just an Oreo, huh?

+ Milk and cookies :). I remember those from my grandmother. Simple yet interesting photo with an emphasize on light, shadows and textures. The composition and POV are well chosen.
- Can't think of any.

I would prefer if you had used double stuff...
joking!
Would be better if the oreo had been more to either side of the picture though. Nice job! (8)

Well shot, in a stock/advertising kind of way. Wish I could it so well.

being never seen an Oreo until DPC they must be very popular in the US as they appear on this site all the time.

Definately some texture here. I don't like the shadow though. You could try to place a light source on each side of the cookie and see if that lessens that shadow a bit. Focus and clarity look ok. I wonder too if you could try some kind of an interesting angle, or different placement within the frame. Kind of dead center. Not off enough to really scream dramatic angle. ~Heather~

yum ;) To make this solid shot better, I'd like to be closer to the cookie (photographically speaking, of course)

I like your shot it's technically very good. However...it looks lonely, should be tilted up or your above. The shadow is a bother. I think the real and only flaw is the angle. 8 from me.

Texture comes through great but there's not much punch or interest.

Good texture, but I wish it was presented a little more creatively. I'm sure the simplicity is intentional, but it doesn't work for me.
