Greetings from the Critique Club!
My first impression was textures? but yes it does fit the challenge.
The composition throws me off a little, its too centered for me, I would have considered moving it further down and a close crop/shot, but again with 18-55 mm, you don't have that much control as you mention.
I like the reflection and overall the picture quality is good which usually ends up with better scores at dpc.
I also noticed from your comment that you had trouble with the speed of the chocolate and then the motion blur and I see you were shooting at 1/200s, F5.6, ISO100. Why not go higher on ISO? 400D I am sure can produce pretty clean results upto ISO400 which will give you fast enough shutter speeds and you could also trade-in some of the shutter speed for more dof if you like.
regards,
Gaurawa

mmmmm. Great shot. Not noisy, good comp, good contrast, well exposed. Hmm... I like to try to give something though for improvement. I do like the composition here but maybe it would be better to have recomposed and put it more to the bottom right. I'd have to see it that way to know for sure. Just a thought. |

An image that demonstates the subject matter of the challenge in spectacular fashion with excellant DOF and color control. Both a technical and artistic success that more than adequately meets the challenge subject in particular with the color shades. A very worthy contender for top ten honors and a possible ribbon contender. |
