Vote the regular way, 3 points for your favorite, 2 points for your second favorite, one point for your third favorite, and give reasons.

Hope I'm doin' this right.

3 points (Fatalysm): Nice effects and good choice of render.
2 points (Crash): You're the only one that actually put a type of food up there.
1 point (Kwiten): I don't like Sonta of Light's entry.

3 points Fatalysm - Would be better in color, but nevertheless good effects, smudging, and I really like the style. The simplicity of it is great.
2 points Crash - Bad stock to begin with, but you wrapped it up quite nicely. Your piece has good depth. I'm distracted by the non-grayscale effect to the bottom right of the focal. And it's too busy for my liking.

Hard choice.

Crash (3) - Since it looks like you actually made a conscience effort, you get third. Bad choice of stock but the effects are reasonable, work on your lighting though.
Kwinten (2) - Process of elimination, i really don't think Sonata made much of an effort, i wouldn't agree that your attempt was much better but for placement with text and possibily some photo-editing it's the better piece.
Sonata of Light (1) - I can't give points to another person, i must say i love your choice for your render, but your lacking any real kind of detail.

3: Fatalysm - I like the fact it's in black and white actually. Very nice choice of render, although the fact that the right side of the piece is so much busier than the left bothers me.
2: Crash - Overall it's pretty good, but in my opinion it's far too busy. Simplicity can go a long way.
1: Kwinten - The text is horrible in my opinion and it's been over-brightened, however the concept isn't bad.
