You really like the food shots, don't you?
This one looks really good to me, minus the peppers. lol
The focus seems a little soft in some places, but I'm thinking that maybe it's because of the lighting, or maybe the texture that makes the shot looks soft. We still get really good detail out of it though.
The setup doesn't look natural to me. The way the peppers fall into the shot, looks really 'arranged'. Not like the ones in the resteraunt don't, but maybe I'd like to see this in a bowl or something. It looks like it was thrown on a table. Maybe if we couldn't see the white border, or if we could see the edge of a bowl or something. That might add a bit of visual appeal.
The colors are definately Secondary. Great way of meeting the challenge.
I tried this with a crop 1/2 way through the upper pepper and it works pretty nicely. Still allows for all the colors, but also takes away the "set up" look of having the peppers right there. There really isn't much going on in that upper portion of the photo, so I don't think you'd be losing anything with a crop like that.
Doesn't make me scream with excitement, however, it's not a bad shot at all. I'm going to go eat now. lol

Decent colors, but this picture isn't about anything in particular. Its composition feels accidental, haphazard, jumbled. The focus choices draw my eye to the ripples in the lettuce leaves, but then there's nothing really to look at it in it.

Looks just like a snapshot of lastnights salad....... perhaps if it was aranged a little more lovingly and with softer lighting it might have come out better....... good luck

there is no wow factor here for me. it looks like you just pointed your camera at a salad and snapped a shot. also it looks like you used a flash, which killed a lot of the sharpness you might have had. 3

the lighting really takes away from what, in my opinion, could have been a really good image
