That really looks appetizing. I wish the image was composed simpler.. The background with both wood and (stone?) is a little bit crowded.

Yum! This looks amazing! I love the use of the unsymmetrical background--very well done. The color palate is lovely too.

Looks yummy - my only negative would be that I find the reduction distracting. Perhaps if it was a neater swirl on the plate? All in all, good job!

OK - this is my take on the presentation of your plate. I would eat it ina second but your layout coudl be better. You have a cool square plate which could have been accented better had you curved the tomato and mozz. It comes up too far onto the edge and the straight line of the tom/mozz doesnt contrast with all of the other straight lines in the image. A curve would have been lovely. The balsamic reduction - had it been reduced down a bit more - could have been thicker which would allow for a cleaner plate design. The splatter just makes it look messy to me. And for a clean photo I would skip the black pepper. I know it tastes awesome but it just adds to the messiness. Something fresh and bright green would have been nice. A pair of chive sticks, a little chiffonade of basil. I am looking at this with eyes of a chef and a photographer. You have excellent components that could have been laid out a bit more pleasing,

Looks delicious, but maybe that balsamic reduction spatter would look even better if it was a little more controlled.
