Ten it is for me. Makes me feel like I'm looking at work by Helmantel, but then I realise that this is a photo. Lovely scene, great colours, depth and tone.

So many good shots!
#2, the burgers does its job. It makes me hungry.
The peppers are beautifully done.
I like both #9, the pears, although I'd like to see a tiny bit more contrast/light on the light parts. It looks like a Renaissance painting. #10, the grapes: The tones there are great.
The bread is clever.

Nice photos, greatly executed work in some of these. I liked the peppers and the pear.
But #13 is the one for me. Food is not just a fancy plate of multi-colored ingredients. Olives and olive oil are a great part of many Mediterranean societies and have been an important parameter for economic growth. It’s a photo I appreciate because it shows how an edible product can be the connective tissue of a community. And imho, the real purpose of this photo is not technical perfection and commercially effective post processing but authenticity and a story-telling quality. That is why I vote for it.

#10. Can't work out why but to me it's joyful and happy. The rest are technically accomplished photos of food.

Geez, this is really tough -- there could be subcategories for capture, concept, composition, color, etc. Really fantastic finalists!

All awesome shots, but I like #3, the peppers. Good lighting, bold color, and good capture of the reflection.

I'm really enjoying numbers 2, 3 and 10. All excellent photographs though - not an easy hard decision. Ultimately, I think the bold trio of burgers takes the top spot for me.

#14 is the best in my opinion. You need many skills to take it. I couldn’t take such a great shot!!!
