Yummy Macaroni!!! You did a good a good job here. Although it is going a little darker to the right side I think you kept the overall brightness correct. Making it any brighter would have overdone the left side. Very sharp and in focus, you can be proud of this one.
wild rhythm.. must be rock and roll... great lighting... great dof and good focus.. for the challenge I would like something more repetitive rather than all broken up... just my opinion though.. wait I just say the blue bubble shot and I liked it even though it was broken up.. maybe for this then if you backed up a bit showing more pasta there would be a greater sense of rhythm? not really sure.. but it might be worth a try
