This was actually my son Isaac's idea originally, but he got sick and didn't have time to shoot it before the deadline, and I had no better idea.

Come on, you didn't get your protractor out, did you?!! That aside, I like the idea, but wish you had stopped down you exposure by a couple of stops.

IMO a little too harsh lighting but a nice idea for the challenge

Hmm, I really don't like that table cloth. :)

This is a very clever interpretation of the challenge. The lace tablecloth gives this a real home-spun feel that works well with the yellowish lighting. My only criticism would be that the lighting feels a little too hot, especially on the third pie from the left.

I like it, the best pi/pie pun I've seen in the contest. I also like the overall composition. My only criticism is that something feels off, like something isn't level or balanced, but that could just be my imagination

I see you only cooked the last one.

A bit of a distracting background, and the rightmost full pie is blown out.

Composition is good (good placement of the pies).

Thats not terribly close to 14 % of the pie. That is more to the tune of 20. Neat idea, though.

i like the composition and the lighting. nice idea to use the chicken pot pies. good job.

LOL! Nice one! Lighting isn't great, layout seems a touch haphazard, crop feels a touch too tight at right and left... but the humour comes through just fine.
