It is difficult to tell what actually this is. too dark and too much of a glare

This looks yummy, but I'm not sure if I'm looking at two pans, or one reflected. A little confusing.

I'm not sure what I'm looking at - is it pudding being made? the image is a little strange but going by your title - if it is in fact pudding - it does look like a sky - interesting :)

Nice colors, but it's hard for me to see what exactly your subject is.

too mysterious, had to see what's what. I'm sure this is intentional, but I'm not pulled into the picture by anthing. Maybe it worked better at higher res, but I just see 2 orange blobs

It is interesting what you tried to do with the color. Unfortunately, the reflections are more distracting than supportive of the image, especially the red speck on the far left and the blueish reflection on the far right. You might consider cropping the later two things out of the composition.

If you didn't have the title, I would have been lost. I'd say it's an interesting picture on its own though. I just think it would have done better if you didn't over saturate and sharpen it. If you didn't, I apologise because it really does look like you have. The black bowl worked fabulously well to show off the vanilla cream colour. Your focus does seem a bit off though. Towards the back of the other pudding, I think it's too orange, I would have thought it was more pale yellow colour. It's a bit too noisy towards the top of the picture.
I'd say the lighting doesn't work very well in the picture, but I guess for that angle, it's alright. Diffused light might have worked better. So for all of that, I gave a 6.

Very interesting colors on this shot, though it's a bit hard to see the food clearly. I think if you were going for an abstract style, then that works.

I...don't see anything (and I've been staring for a while). Maybe it's just too abstract for me.

This looks very abstract. Almost like lava.

I don't get it. I also don't see it. Too dark maybe?

I found this image very distracting, is it near a mirror. Also very centred.

Interesting shot. I can't tell it is food but I like the deep rich colors.

neat looking shot, hard to tell what it is though

Poor lighting, I can't even tell what I am looking at. Too much black space.

Rather abstract image, I don't think I'd have a clue without the title, and still not sure exactly at what I'm seeing. For me the highlights are disturbing, if that's the pudding at the bottom, then the colors have gone over to something unpleasant
