Breakfast of the Champion

I've tried still life. What could be easier? It's just right there. If the photo is a little fuzzy just retake it at your own leisure. It's not going anywhere. Right? HUH so wrong. If I move this one to the front would that be better or move this over to the left a little more or maybe just take this out and on and on and on it goes. It drove me nuts. I'll stick to wild life and take my chances.
I like the shot. I like the lighting; maybe the fork could've been moved a little more to the left :) Just kidding it's a great shot

If you put both pastries on that front plate you would have caught my attention a lot faster!!

I can't put my finger on it, Ernesto but I don't like this one as well as your others. The roll does look good though!

Looks good. My only criticism would be to have black coffee with the delicious looking roll. But that is a personal preference. Great image. I agree with tramsey, food photography is much more difficult than it seems it should be, at least for me. I may suggest it to my camera club for a project.

I agree the black background is distracting and the white balance is off. That said, it is just after 5 AM and it is making me hungry.

I really like this. The point of food photography is to make the food look tasty. You have certainly done that. I like the fact that the colours are mostly shades of grey except for the cinnamon rolls. That really draws attention to them. I like the fact that the second roll (you are having seconds, right?) is slightly out of focus and that the focus drops off near the far edge of the table, meaning that all the important stuff is up front. There is just enough shadow to show directionality of light, which I like.
I think you have done this very well. I assume it's not possible for a retake because all of the elements were consumed?

Remove the half bun on the right.

I like it, Ernesto. The grey/blue color palette of everything that’s not a cinnamon roll, makes the pastry with the white icing drizzle pop. A second pastry on the breakfast table is a must when I have my breakfast.😊

Very nice still life
I would suggest doing away with the second Cinnamon Roll behind the mug.
Now I'm going to cook breakfast!!

Love the colors and composition. The roll in back gives a hint of another person sharing the moment, (as my wife and I have every morning for the past 25 years). This would be good for marketing a coffee house.

Hi Tito, You did a nice job of shooting, but there is to much clutter. May I suggest though, keeping it simple is best in food photography. You want to show the main topic, which in this case, I take it is the bun and coffee cup. I would take out the napkin and the other bun in the upper right corner. Shoot at a little higher angle. Do not have a horizon line. Use seamless paper, and get a little more indirect light on the subject to heighten the allure. One more suggestion, place the fork above the dish crosswise. The way it is now draws the eye to it, and away from the main subject.

On the technical side... the colour temperature is off
and it seems the red-blue balance is off as well.
Your lights are a problem and your white balance settings (in camera) are not cutting the mustard.
