I like the different take on the crop, not sure about the glass in the background - maybe if the lemon wedge wasn't cropped. Depth of field works well with the abstract feel here.
i could see this on the cover of a sheik gourmet magazine. perhaps that's why you went with a vertical crop. i hope others don't complain about your composition and focus as i find both quite appealing
seriously reminded me that I need to eat breakfast ... that should be a huge compliment considering this is not a breakfast image. I'm thinking the viewer might like to see a lil more zuchinni and stuff but I really like the magazine-esque image. 7
