A balance between dark and light using symmetry is my entry for the week. I hope I have progressed in my knowledge about balance, but I'm sure seeing the winning entries will help as well.

Besides the physical balance of the stack of mini-pancakes, I also sought to achieve a balance between the size of the honey pond relative to the pancake stack, while also using its bright reflection to lift the colour of the pancakes.
