 Mmm... food photography. It's quite distracting when the house smells of baked potatoes and chips :)

Trying to go for the cookery book type look which I think it's a half decent effort at but somewhat lacks that appetizing look. Some butter on the baked potato might help but kinda ran out of time. Little more shadow than I wanted as well :/

Perhaps not an especially exciting shot, but certainly not DNMC :)

[Post Challenge Edit]
Surprised but happy to finish in the top 10 here, thanks for the votes! If you are interested, this is the set-up for this shot.

Now, you've gone and made me want potatos for dinner LOL. Nicely captured! It just lacks a bit of interest in terms of why we'd want to see this type of idea. Can't quite put my finger on what would have improved this to add more interest but, it's nicely done! 6

I am getting hungry looking at this picture. Great how you managed to get the textures so clear that you can almost taste them.
