Lots and Lots of Chocolate

[Mike Buckley]

I overdosed on chocolate just making the photo even though I didn't eat a bite or drink a sip.

Setup
The tabletop is wood. A small continuous-light lamp at the left front corner was shining toward the opposite corner. A white reflector in the rear brightened the fork's tines. Ten focus-bracketed images at Nikon step size 3 were stacked in Helicon Focus at its default settings.

Very nice image Mike. Also congrats on managing not to eat a bite, I wouldn't be able to do that..

 

[Mike Buckley]

Thank you to Glenn, dossy, Binnur and Allan!

The chocolate cake has six layers, so there is as much icing as cake. It's so rich that my wife and I ate only two of the layers for dessert after supper, which still leaves a four-layer cake to eat.

That does look very appetizing!

Thank you also to Nick and Carl!

Wow. Now that's a lot of chocolate. I like the way you have it arranged.

Shame on you Mike for putting all that temptation in one image.

I somehow let this thread get away from me. Thanks to Gordon for reviving it, I can thank not just him but also Gary, Dan and Klaus for their compliments!
