How is this? Obviously not staged and more a spur of the moment thing, but I need to start posting more for feedback anyways :)

I do like the odd plate, and the bottle/glasses arrangement. The things that bug me are the camera tilt, the bland table runner, and the lack of good lighting.

Thanks, I can see that - is it underexposed or just not lit enough? I really need to get my monitor calibrated :(

There needs to be more light and more attention to the food. As it is right now, the brightest highlights are all clustered in the wine glasses. After the dark corner, the glasses are the second thing that gets my attention. Also, did you add a vignette in post?

Yeah - I guess as an attempt to deal with the negative space top right, the fireplace tiles seemed pretty boring. I want to do some more food photography now :)

This is just a natural light snapshot of my dinner, but I'm wondering if there's anything I can do to improve the processing:



My spinach is too dark I think, I like the natural shape of the chicken, although the edges between it and the risotto is really weird.

I also tried a different angle, but I don't like the focus here at all - am I right?



I haven't really processed this one yet.
