This shot and b&w processing is closer to what I envisioned when I shot the pie, so in spite of some very nice compliments
about my original color post, I'm changing my entry. Thanks for the feedback folks!

A nice way to round out the feast.
And our bellies

Great idea, Jess, my friend! That must have been some Thanksgiving feast! Well-done!

Fond regards,

Thanks Mike. I'd like to try to get some more drama out of it, but I did like the different kinds of rounding, from the tiny globules to the large curves.
And it sure did taste good, thanks to my cousin's talents.
Here's a more conventional view:

Thanks Endre, it really was an amazing table. Five different kinds of pie! This was a truly tart lemon meringue. Mmmmmmmmm!

Hi Jess,

I like the color swirls and droplets, and it looks very tasty. Good luck this week.

Best wishes,

Steve S.

Hi Jess!
The droplets look cool, and I like that you shot at a different angle than usual.
And though it's great technically speaking, overall it doesn't seem like a real strong image to me.
Respectfully,
Carrol

Thanks for being honest, Carrol. In spite of a lot of kind comments, I'm not all that happy with my result, and may play with other options before the assignment ends. I think I succeeded in making a pleasing composition, but I want more than that! (Wish I'd had a macro lens along that day! )

Thanks Dave. At the time, I wished that I had my macro lens along to get in closer to the droplets. With their color and transparency, they could have made a good image on their own. With the broader view, I think I'm happier with the black and white that emphasizes the curves of the meringue.

Steve, thanks for returning for a look. I'm often insecure about my artistic choices, so even though it ultimately has to be my decision, it's nice to find some agreement.

I'm trying to diet. Evil! That's why I like the B&W version. It's slightly less cruel.
