Saw this in voting and though it was yours Enzo. This is highly underrated (I can't believe mine finished higher) I think part of the problem is geography - I didn't know what a Friand was until I googled it and I wonder how many voters were the same. :-( Now I know, I want to try one lol.
This image looks great though. I have to agree with Techo about the way you always make your food shots look natural, arranging the table decorations/wine etc around the shot and somehow makng it look casual, almost effortless, and not at all "stagey" and artificial. Your use of DOF really adds to that - I don't agree with the commenter who criticised it, I think it's perfect here. The only technical criticism I'd make is the topping on the Friands seems a bit bright - not quite blown out but a bit bright for my taste nonetheless. I'm not too sure about the lemons but as I don't know the dish I shan't criticise ;-)
Perhaps this isn't your best shot but then you have very high standards. I can't emphasise that last sentence enough. Keep it up Enzo, more food pics please :-)
