Critique Club Review:
Focus is very good. Depth of field starts to soften at the front of the foreground bagel.
Color appears a bit odd here. Particularly on the bagel to the left. Almost a greenish hue, to my eye.
The seeds are so many, so varied, so scattered, that the bagels come across as the subject instead.
I have to agree the lighting comes across as harsh and cold. The reflection off the left bagel is the reason here. I would recommend a different background also. The background comes off as gray, and unappetizing. A colored cloth or something in earth tones would help.
As is, this picture would not make me want to eat those bagels. Which, if you want the viewer to appreciate and like the picture and the seeds, I feel it should do.
Photographing food is tricky. If it doesn't turn out appealing, then because it is food, people seem to react more strongly in the negative direction. |
