After a recent birthday in the family there was a tonne of chocolate in the house, i searched some stock sites for some inspiration for this challenge and found the following image which i liked.

Fred Hansen Photography.

I saw the comment from mariuca and followed the link to h2' profile, yup mine is similar to h2' "Beat This" but what has annoyed me is the comment left by h2 and the subsequent 1 vote that he gave me. I personally would have been pleased that someone may have attempted to reproduce my image, however in this case i have tried to replicate someone elses image.

It appears h2 believes he has the sole rights to the chocolate and whisk photographs around the world, although i would query where he got the idea from???.

The comment left smacks of someone who has thrown their toys out of their pram. Had it been constructive or offered some advice i may have felt different.

Still despite h2' negativity i still learnt from this challenge and thats what its all about, and the Galaxy chocolate was Great!!!

well planned; there is a beautiful place in this shot, on the bottom left of the beater where the tone is perfect. Perhaps the focus otherwise is a bit too soft given the light values of colors you have chosen; but its still a very good and interesting shot.

The chocolate is a bit pale, would prefer if it were darker and more brown. But a good photo.

That's the lightest chocolate I've ever seen, lol. I feel like something's missing from this image. Maybe you need more dripping, delicious goodness?

Very nice idea. I feel like the chocolate is a bit blown out on the whisk and subsequent saturation of the chocolate. Still a unique and creative idea.
