Food for a Sweet Tooth

February 2023

A cool pop art style shot that really stands out. the colours and overall feel grabs your attention straight away and would be successful in advert or similar professional campaign. A fun interesting shot that i think is a well deserved winning image.

Fantastic looking cakes. A relatively simple shot but the lighting and angle make the shot a success and a winning image. I like the overhead top down style with the bright lighting. The box frames the cakes and also tell a bit of story. Well done on a winning image

i love the colours and the lighting in this shot. Also the way you have used a shallow depth of field really works and adds to the overall feel of the shot. A great looking image that almost made it into the top 10

I liked this shot and it fits the breif and its fun and amusing. There weren't many portraits so it's interesting to see how your interpreted the brief. Colours and lighting are great, good makeup and style and a fun narrative. Well done on a good winning image

Great shot, congrats on a winning image. I particularly like the overall tones in the image and also the relatively shallow depth of field. The cupcakes are styled nicely with interesting elements of chocolate around, it looks natural and not too staged and very taste

A top image, I particularly like the macro style and the close up texture in this shot. THe close up angle and back lighting add to this sumptuous shot. It also has a abstract feel which is successful. A great winning image congrats

interesting advertising style shot, i can imagine this shot used for an advertising brand. technically interesting and not an easy shot to create. the tones work well as does the overall treatment of the image. A great winning shot congrats

An interesting image and unique. At first glance it looked like a mirror was placed behind but when i looked at it for longer i realised it something else. The change of perspective is successful and there is a lot to look at so the eye doesn't settle but keeps looking for a narrative. A good interesting shot well done

A really interesting and unique way to capture the cherries. I'm guessing it was taken underwater but it's hard to tell which is why i like it. A great shot that very nearly made it into the top 10, welldone

A classic still life feel to this shot which i like, it also fits well with the brief. The lighting and positioning is great and reminds me of a classic painting. A great shot that almost made it into the top 10 ,well done

The textures and tones work very well for this image. I also like the natural looking styled almonds and berries. And the way the cake is cut ready for eating. The background also add to the overall image. Well done on a winning shot

a delicious looking shot and looks like a very well made desert. The lighting and styling works very well and it's the type of shot i could see in a professional advert. Well done on great shot that very nearly made it into the top 10

I like the falling sugar which is successfully captured at high speed. I also like the way the cakes are stacked ontop of each other, the tones and lighting form above also add to the success of this shot. Congrats and great winning image

Great shot, well done on a winning image, i like the composition, the colours and tones. I find angle interesting and the feeling of movement captured with the hundreds and thousands (sprinkles) shot at high speed with just the right amount of blur.
