[QUOTE="Marcel, post: 100249, member: 3903"] Jeremy, I would never show this shot to a restaurant or put it on a menu. The pan looks old and/or dirty or rusty and the mushrooms don't look fresh. This is one thing were you can't compromise with food photography: The food has to look great, not just OK, great. You'll have to select each individual mushroom or piece that will go in a plate before even taking the camera close to the plate. The lighting has to be better than what you have on this picture. With food, you need a backlight to give it depth and a lot more depth of field than on this shot. It has to be sharp sharp except maybe for a few special shots. Food shots are not simple snaps, they have to be planned as far as composition and preparation. Get a few food books and study the pics in there, you will get an idea of what I'm talking about. Take only your best shots to your future customers. [/QUOTE]
