YES YES I DO WANT A COOKIE. Man that looks so appetizing!
Lighting: A bit harsh and strong. What you need to do is not point your clamps directly at the subject but rather away at a piece of white cardboard. This will cause the light falling on your subject to be a lot more diffuse, and less glarey.
Focus: The front lip of the glass is in focus but the cookie is not. It's not enough out of focus that it looks like a cool DOF effect. A smaller aperature (bigger #) would have helped here.
Composition: The placement of the cookie is kind of confusing. Because it's slightly overlapping it's kind of hard to tell if it's in the mouth of the glass or behind the glass. The DOF thing adds to this. I'd like it not overlapping or more fully overlapping.
Great shot!! You made me break out the Chunky Chips Ahoy! |

| Good composition. There are a lot of milk and cookie photos in this challenge, but yours is more on the level of art than many of them. |

| Great focus and and I really like the angle although it looks unatural because of the lack of tilt of the milk. The only real nit is the number of glares in the glass. It appears that you needed something to soften the lights i.e. a sheet or reflector. Good shot. |

| Oh I love this macro shot. I really like how the milk hasn't been spilled and left a white mark on the glass, it is perfectly rounded in the glass. Excellent job there. Also, it makes me HUNGRY - LOL. Great work and GL. |

| Very nice use of cropping and contrast, as well as claity. ONly thing I could think of changing was the blue spot on the glass and a little softer lighting to keep the harsh reflections of the glass less strong. Wonderful clarity of texture on the cookie, looks like I could reach up, grab it and swallow it whole!! |

| Very yummy shot. The angle and framing/cropping is great. The only thing that bothers me, and it's not really a problem, just an observation. Is that the angle of the glass makes it seem like the milk should be pouring out and it isn't even tilted. the cookie is in really good focus. Love the clearness of the entire shot. Background is perfect for this shot. Great job. Good luck in the challenge. |

| Diagonal crop makes this a much stronger image. |

| Nice work..good. I would of liked the cookie lower, in focus more, a bit soft as it is. Still I do love the focus of the glass and milk. Your light is almost 100% perfect...it's 90%. ?I'm picky... Rich colors with good depth. I like this shot. Good luck to you. |

| What's the blue on the glass by the cookie? First thing I saw. Good choice of background. Looks like taken with camera at an angle, good job. Great focus and cropping. I like the frame and think it adds to this photo, usually don't. Great job. Would be worth an 8. |
