 A huge block of Chocolate a friend who works for Cadbury's gave me for Xmas...

Shot under one flash+white brolly on the dining room table. Manual settings using a flash meter.

Spot edited some wee spots off the chocolate, slight curves and USM.

Not a lot of effort put in, but then it's new years eve, although we're not going to a party this year for the first time in ages, a good movie on DVD and some 30 year old whiskey sounds fine to me though, I must be getting old. :-).

Happy new years.

Fortunately, the newest recommendation is to eat more (preferably darker) chocolate!

Ah, come on... NObody can quit eating Cadbury's, can they? And if they could, would you want to know them? THAT kind of people???

Good concept and composition. I would like the script on chocolate a little sharper. The imperfections on the corner squares are a bit distracting. Good luck and HNY.

nice composition, but nothing makes me go "wow".

Nice crop and lovely composition. I know it's hard to give up chocolate, especially when that's all you get for Xmas ;)

This one may be TOO sharp... Mistify it a little and the choclate would look more "dangerous"... The ble/type diagonal area is way too agressive, I think. A little desaturation there might have worked wonders.
