The food looks great. The composition feels like a place setting without the silverware. If you were going for this feel, I think adding the silverware, a less distracting background behind the table and shooting at an angle might help.
Restaurants these days use very plain plates so that the food is shown off at its best. I think that applies here too as your food blends into the plate.
Good idea including white wine. There are some technical issues to be concernede with. Focus is somewhat soft and would be better if sharper. The light reflection in the wine glass produces a distracting overexposed spot on the lace cloth behind it. The lace cloth is stained and that is distracting. The table is not level.
Your wine came out very clear. The actual food seems too soft. There is very little detail in texture. Maybe another light source reflecting onto the food, but out of the camera view, would have given the food more light to separate the items better.
The food looks good but the arrangement of the things withing the frame seems static...maybe too centered. For example ...placing the bottle at 11:30 to the plate and the glass at 9:00 (or in reverse)would have looked more natural. Good Luck!
Looks delicious and a lovely presentation. Lack of silverware seems a bit odd. I might have chosen a more simple tablecloth with the plate and food being so "busy". Well done though!
Seems quite busy with the table cloth and the blue backdrop. Dual lighting may of cut down on the shadows. You do have a nice composition and the food is well presented. 8
Arrangement is good. Salmon looks stale, the color is off. Poor choice in the dishware, the pattern conflicts with the food items, makes them seem dull. Stain on the tablecloth.
