Second image is good. I think you actually need to strike a balance
between the two angles; one is too high, the other too low. Try
something in between. Try making the background more color-neutral.


If you want to see really professional food photography, just visit
Martha Stewart's website. Study how they shot the image. How did they
make the food as appealing as possible?


Thank you wickerprints for your comments and suggestions. Thank you for pointing out about the WB and color cast for food, I haven't read upon that yet. I'll look at MS website soon. Thanks for referring a site.

First, the fix to the original picture seemed to me for the first moment like you had taken the picture again. Now it looks much better (but all the original comments/suggestion still hold).


As for the new shot - awesome! the low angle and the fork that is now more in focus look great - almost like a professional shot [img]/emoticons/emotion-11.gif[/img]


With that said, it's still to tight in my opinion - specifically on the left hand side of the frame.


Good job!

Thanks Oren! Composition wise on the first photo can't be change in PS. []


About the second photo, thank you! As I have limited space to work with, I opted to take tight shots or else I'd be including the rest of the unwanted background. []


Thank you again guys for the wonderful comments, suggestions, and support!


Cheers!
