The Oreo's Last Stand *

Yes, I did stop my wife from taking the last oreo, but she got it after a few minutes.

Hmmm.. the idea may be good but what's up with the composition? How about the contrast? This looks like an image straight out of the camera. There's a heck of a lot of empty space to the right and the main subject is almost centered.

Maybe this shot would benefit from some cropping and processing. I can't see the detail in the cookie. Give it a shot. Maybe I'm too picky? B^)

I would have liked to play more with the idea... but the other bag of oreos were polished off tonight. Many gave their life so that I may smile.

Very nice. Now this I like. Hmmmm....now where did my wife hide that box of oreos???

This CSLR Challenge round is really impressive by its variety of good theme interpretations. This picture is another case in point. I really love your idea here.

I wonder how it would look if the background were simplified to a plain white sheet. I.e., what would be the effect of having nothing but the Oreo package, the hand and the resulting shadows?

Haha, nice idea Mike. You could follow it up with a Together photo with milk! :-)
