 I'm pretty happy with this one, except for three things:

- claustrophobic composition
- glare in upper left
- flat lighting

if I could change any one of them, I'd change that last one... but circumstances were strange. I suppose people might like the idea here but object to the poor lighting.

focal length 24 mm.
I went through so many adjustment layers I couldn't possibly name them all...

Good composition, it leads the eye smoothly back through the picture. What is the brown stuff on the plate with the apple?

That's cute!!!! I think this is the best one that showed the decision of healthy eating vs. the sweets because it shows the decision made. Good job. I love your title too.

the cake blends into the background too much.. The apple is far too indistinct if it is meant to be the healthy option. Lighting is crucial.

I don't feel that the image conveys instantly recognizable decision. However it is a decent photo.

Looks like a valid decision to me. Nice overall job.

dark and over-sharpened. but at least it's a decision!

Strange tones, a few ideas like this but this has got to be the strangest in its execution. I like unconventional styles so 6 from me.

A good representation of a decision (that has been made). I'd prefer the fork handle to be rotated 180 degrees so the photo has the point of view of the person eating.
