Add eggs and scramble

Serve with your favorite breakfast sides and breads or, do as we did in the photo and serve for dinner. Sides in the shot include garlic grean beans and cranberry flax seed crusty rolls.

Well lit. the lighting gives a very natural feel to the shot. I think the DOF is actually useful here.

There seems to be a glare across the image (light from the back), the angle is not pleasing (tilted to left)

nice composition and i like the focal point. the colors overall were too dull for me and made the image boring tho
