Love the use of the desk, with stowed computer, as a buffet, and right next to the teeny woodstove. This is truly what people DO to accommodate the influx of family and friends for occasions.

The first thing that my sons eye was drawn to was the drawing of the woman on your flu. It is amazing how we all see different things. the first for me was the blast of pink. looks like a nice meal

Just looks like a casual snapshot I'm afraid.

Looks yummy, but I don't think it fulfils the "advanced editing" challenge

Now that's what I would call a feast. Is it more or does the lighting look a bit flat? Maybe add some contrast.

It looks delicious and sort of "olde worlde". I think it might have more impast in b/w. This is really only my opinion, so if you're sitting on a 7 just ignore me ;-)

Concentrate more on the food. Crop out the computer? under the table/desk. Maybe take the shot to the front and drop down to a lower angle so that you can use the yellow wall as a nice bacground. The fireplace is too much of a distraction.

Great feast, I would have liked a different cropping, there are several items that distract me.

Good concept and setting, decent subject, but missing something from the appeal side. Doesn't quite grab me. 5

Go in a bit tighter, fill the frame with that delicious looking food!

Sorry, but it's not the most interesting perspective you could have taken here. I know you tried to get it all in the frame, but you also got the computer and the furnace in there.
