The candy looks a little out of focus, color balance is good, and nice lighting.

You have a great eye for composition and I love the wonderful colors and different sizes....if It was sharp it would rate a very high score from me.

nice pic. But too bad that the reflection is so good to see.

What a nice picture to look at. So vividly colored and bright. I would definitely have a hard decision faced with all that. I'm afraid my decision might be to have a few of each :) But seriously, I like your photo a lot. It's a little blurry, but I like it a lot anyway.

I don't feel that the image conveys instantly recognizable decision. Decent attempt. Nice pic.

like the colours. to answer decisions a youngster could have improved the pic. I'm frustrated at not being able to read the labels(purely a personal problem). One of the nicer choices pictures.

Finally an obvious decision based on the photograph, not the title. Thank you!
