Food is an art and every meal that one eats is a
process, consisting of the glamorous presentation and the
inevitable destruction of the food. First, the menu is presented and the meal
to be eaten must be chosen. Next, the food is served, in this instance an array
of pastries was served for Afternoon Tea. The pastries, such as cupcakes and
macaroons, were arranged in a beautiful manner, making the guest not want to
disrupt the array of pastries. Up to this point the emotions associated with
the meal are upwards trending, as the person is waiting for the meal to come.
Once the meal comes, the upwards trend reaches its climax as the food enters
the person’s mouth. The step before this, however, is the waitress bringing the
food and explaining each pastry in mouth-watering detail to the guests at the
table. This intermediary step between ordering and consuming the food includes vivid
thought in the guests’ mind of the time, detail, and thought that the chef must
have put in to create the arrangement of pastries. Finally, once the meal is
eaten, the eye-catching food is destroyed in an instant. This is portrayed in
the final photo.

Grade breakdown:
ReplyDelete3/4 for intro (1 out of 2 points for framing a "feeling" or "emotion." You should tell your audience about the feeling you're trying to convey earlier than the fifth sentence in your intro. I'm also not quite sure what you mean by "upwards trending" - could you explain a little more what you mean by this phrase, or rephrase?) (& 2 points for grammar/writing mechanics.)
2.5/3 for photos (great composition in the first photograph; the other two photographs could be better-composed; i.e. your first photo follows the rule of thirds but the other two do not, and seem a bit "busy" or "crowded" in terms of the objects in frame.)
3/3 for hashtags
Total: 8.5/10
Letter Grade: B
