    Perhaps I should just wear my own more! :lol:

    Good luck everyone, I'm looking forward to seeing all the great pics and voting! (Actually the voting is the worst bit, because it's always so tough!)

    I cut this one veeery close, but I got one in!!! Yay me!! *claps* And the first thing I said to mum when I saw the title of this thread was 'I should print out a pic of George or Rory or Eddie and take a picture of it and send that in!' :lol:

    Good luck everyone!

    Please read this post carefully before voting.

    57: Lack of texture

    Examples of bad reasons:

    63: The photo is boring

    Here are the photos:

    Wow! There are some amazing pictures there. I really had a hard time picking out ones this time. There isn't a bad picture in the bunch. I can see this contest is going to get more and more difficult.

    Here's my choices:

    9 - This picture didn't convey the idea of "edible" to me. I couldn't tell if it wad made from cookie dough or play doh. It's cute, but it doesn't bring food to mind.

    13 - There's too much space around the main image. While Shaggy was a cute addition, he detraced from the edible parts of the image. Also, there were to many contrasting patterns. They were distracting.

    11 - Its a good idea and the photo definitely gives me the idea of "edible", but there was too much side and foreground in the image. This would have worked a bit better if it had been shot from over head. That way the cookies would have been front and center.

    Wow .... not only am I hungry, I'm amazed at everyone's brilliant photos! This was really hard to choose so well done everyone.

    08 - Good idea for a photo but the focus is on the boy and not the food. Plus the sandwiches blend into the hands and background.

    14 - Great photo but I think it should have been taken without the hands (or have them less obvious) in the picture as they are very distracting.

    02 - The way the food on the tables is arranged is beautiful but I think the photo itself could have been arranged better as there's no direct focus to the picture and too many objects to take in.

    Re: TalkCSI LPS #1: Challenge 3 - Edible

    Mmmm... I'm hungry! :lol:

    Gosh - this was the most difficult round so far. All the photos are really good. :eek:

    However, as we have to vote, here are my votes:

    09 - This photo didn't convey the theme of edible to me. Although, I suspect it is marzipan, it also looks a little like play-dough. And you shouldn't eat play-dough (or so my Mum told me when I was little...)

    13 - Again, the theme was not clearly reflected in this photo, for me. The couch that Shaggy is sitting on does indeed look to me a cake but Shaggy dominates the photo and it makes me think of loafing or decadence more than ediblity (is that even a word?)

    12 - The plate is not positioned centrally for the photo. Although the food looks delicious (yum!), their are objects in the background that distract a little (like the mobile phone, bag(?) and person sitting...).

    Sorry guys - they are all great photos but I had to pick three!

    Re: TalkCSI LPS #1: Challenge 3 - Edible

    05 - the image in the back of the photo is too distracting
    13 - the photo is too dark and the figure masks the 'edible' object in the photo
    09 - the photo doesn't really convey the theme edible to me

    These were all great pics.. makes me want to eat :lol:

    Re: TalkCSI LPS #1: Challenge 3 - Edible

    08 - It seems to me that the person is the subject of this photo, not the bread.

    09 - I can't tell whether it's something edible.

    13 - Again, I think the focus is on the figure instead of the food.

    It was hard to pick, though. All the photos are great!

    Re: TalkCSI LPS #1: Challenge 3 - Edible

    Number 9 - I understand that it's probably marzipan, but it looks a little too much like Play Dough.

    Number 13 - You can't eat Shaggy ;)

    Number 14 - I don't understand this one...but I like the cat :D

    Great photos!

    Re: TalkCSI LPS #1: Challenge 3 - Edible

    05- There's a glare from the flash on the picture in the background and it's a bit distracting from the actual focus of the picture
    01- The silver dish combined with the light from the flash is actually a little blinding. It sort of makes the entire picture look a little metallic
    02- There's too much in the picture and it's a bit overwhelming. You can't exactly tell what the main focus of it is (obviously the food, but what particular object?). It's a beautiful picture, but everything just looks a little too cramped

    Awesome job though, guys!

    9 - looks like plasticine or something, doenst look edible to me.

    14 - its hard to tell if the cat or the tube of what looks like glue, lol, is the focus, deosnt give me the feeling of 'edible'

    8 - the kid is distracting, the sandwiches should have been inthe centre of the shot.
