the top bun looks like it has dirt or mold on it and it looks as if a light was too close or you used a flash.

Lamb Chops with Asparagus
avatar DanLundberg

Right on theme with an upscale-magazine layout. Unfortunately, the glare on the pork chop hides the central ingredient. I think making "Lamb Chops" and "With Asparagus" bigger and having the former slightly overlap the latter could be more dramatic. Also, traditionally the ingredients come first (i.e., on the left side here) followed by the instructions (i.e., on the right side here). (I suppose alternatively having the ingredients higher than the instructions might visually convey the traditional ordering arrangement even if the physical arrangement is non-traditional.)

Sounds good, but the small text is barely readable in high res.

the text of your description need to be centered to the panel with an equal gap seperating the 2 columns and give more space on the left side text (its a guillotine operators nightmare).......sorry to be picky but I do this for a living

Sounds delicious, but the light reflection off the pork chop is too high contrast, looking more like a glare than a highlight.

You've also misspelled "ingredients."

Lovely concept, great mood image!

Lighting is a tricky; I think it is possible to have 2 light sources and one of them can be out of the picture and therefore casting light on the boy, boat and turtle head (in that case there would be a slight shadow on the turtle head from the rod and the lighting could be a bit more consistent for the turtle and the boy). Just a thought as I know it is too late to change anything.

You have done a lovely job on the whole and as I said at the beginning, truly lovely concept and mood!

Nice image...agree with MnMCarta and freejay about great use of color over entire image. Perhaps you could bring the front end of reflection of boat to meet the boat edge. In fact, the reflection probably would butt up against the edge of the boat and not have any space of water without reflection. Does that make sense? Also, maybe have the fishing pole cast a shadow on the sea creature's head. I'm not nitpicking here...it's a great image. Just thought these things might help. Great job, author!

I'm not interested in an argument...but I will say if the light source is from the back, then the boy's chest and viewer's side of the turtle's head wouldn't be so bright. What's creating such brightness on those parts? I think what you're going for is to be able to see everything. The way the light source is now...truthfully they would be more like silhouettes.

Nice imagination and colors....not sure about the light source as its coming from behind them in the background between the clouds.

"as long as the color black is the main color." If there is no colour in the photo, then how can we tell what is the main colour, even though it isn't stated that B/W aren't allowed I think it's pretty obvious that they want colour photographs.

Yes, but then only a color photo can help bring out and emphasize the black part or parts in an image. In this image, author, we can hardly tell which is black, and which is not, at least in my opinion.
