I can't decide if I like either or neither of these. Any help would be appreciated.

    I like #1 better because the items are larger in each frame.

    I like your idea. You might shoot with a visually smooth background rather than the paper plate.

    I like the bigger veggies, too!

    I agree, if you had a uniform background it would be less distracting. Some parchment paper or butchers wrap. 1 is really nice except for the grapefruit slice with the dark corners.

    Great idea! I like the bigger produce pieces, also.

    I'd prefer a solid background instead of the paper plates.

    The other thing I noticed is that the white in each frame is a bit different. Some are bright and some are greyer. I think I'd try to get that more uniform, too.

    Very creative!

    Thanks for your input! I'll try to shoot more veggies this weekend then, with a plain background.

    What a fantastic idea! My only suggestion when you're looking for a new background would maybe have some color, the white seems too plain? I don't know, but it is a great ideathumb.gif

    I love the images, and I agree that the background needs work. I like the white,and I like seeing the plate edges, but I would like to see it consistently placed/cropped in each frame. I think that would give it an appealing look overall.
