 Not much to say here, it's an extra small ice cream cone sitting on my table in the dark. I had a heck of a time deciding on exactly how to position the light. But I finally got it the way a I wanted it. I very slightly tweaked the sharpness and the brightness to make it look more stark. Go easy on me, it's my first submission :)

Yummy, my favorite. Nice POV and interesting reflection. I like how hte light enhances the texture on one side.

I like the lighting you used, but I think it would have been better if the transition from light to dark was smoother.

Seems a bit too tightly cropped on top.

Good texture and I like the reflection I'm not a fan of this kind of lighting where one whole side of the subject is obscurred.

I'd like to be much closer to the subject to really get a sense of the texture that I know is there

I very much like what you did with this. Good texture, good color. Composition (in my opinion) could benefit from showing a bit more than half of the cone. But that's your decision, not mine. Looks good as is.

To far away. I'm not feeling it, it doesn't make me want to keep looking at it. Sorry.

Very small image, and lacking fine detail. The grand texture, if you understand me, is well shown. Doesn't hold a lot of interest for me though, I fear.
