The lighting seems to be a bit flat :) some dramatic lighting would have looked better here. Also, the composition is a bit centered :)

I guess that cookie fell in the wrong hands ;) (just kidding) :P

Good luck man :)

As I told You, the third position in this challenge has been your idea over red velvet ... and a good lighting. Continue with those ideas!

The background is a rather distracting and bright color. Lighting also seems bright.

Cute idea...love the background. Pink works well; allows the text to pop out. Good composition and lighting.

Great job! I like it!

This would have impressed me more if it had a more generic fortune. Like "Your vision will bring you success."

Nice idea - think there were a couple more of the same. Fortune is a great one! I like the way you've composed and exposed this but think the magenta background is terrible. It would be so much better with a pretty dark background.

Nice and clear shot, good idea for the challenge. But, wouldn't the fortune cookie be broken? 8

Cute!

I would return that fortune cookie!
joke!

"in bed" :)

Great idea! I think the focus looks a tiny bit soft though. I think it would look better if you couldn't see the texture in the background material.

lol, that is funny :) Very creative. The image is good quality also, has good detail. Great job.

dunno if violety is the best background color.

 07/14/2004 03:31:04 PM
Clever idea. Who knows? It could happen.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 07/14/2004 01:28:02 PM
Good luck! Nice lighting and focus.

Would have been better if the cookie was broken in half!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 07/14/2004 12:01:15 PM
I agree. very nice shot.

That's true... I'm in for a money-making career, according to last night's... but I'm going to be a teacher!

Still, I'll help you on your way with a nice score, since I like the colors, the idea, and the clarity :)

LOL - what a clever idea!

Clever! I like it better cropped a little clover top and bottom. A more dramatic shape, and less background.

CUte, very Cute. But the Fuschia background is aggravating
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 07/13/2004 09:48:59 PM
I find this very tacky. I don't think the purple background helps that. The lighting is very good though. 4
