I thought I'd assemble the different food groups for a late night snack. After I made the sandwich it just looked to colorful and I decided to take the picture. Only minor adjustments were made to contrast and sharpness.

This photo is making me hungry! LOL :) This is a late night snack? I'm coming to visit at your house! :)
A nice shot but that's it, a nice shot. As you can see from some of the other shots the idea was to offer a more abstract feel or setting to the shot. This, with the proper PS treatment would make a wonderful ad for a turkey (is it turkey) sandwich.
THe light is a bit harsh on the top and the shadows to the right are very distracting. Maybe the use of a reflector of fill light to balance it out?
This could have been more abstract to me, (but trust me when I say I'm the last person to ask about abstract art) is if you had arranged the celery and cherrie and did a more macro shot of them. Maybe with the bread in part of it?
I really like your shell shot in your profile, you've got a good eye overall.
I hope my comments help and Good Luck in future Challenges!
The idea of the challenge was to use food to create an ABSTRACT image. There is nothing abstract about this. Had you used a macro or zoom lens and shot in real close it may have worked.
Very much like modern art. Simplistic. I might have added some color enhancement, but perhaps that would have taken away from the reality of this picture. Well done... though it probably won't score well on DPC. It lacks the "Wow Factor" that is needed for high scoring photos. The simplicity may be taken for lack of creativity or laziness. Not my personal opinion, but...
abstract: Having an intellectual and affective artistic content that depends solely on intrinsic form rather than on narrative content or pictorial representation
