Colors seem a tiny bit flat. Maybe a slight curves adjustment?

windy title not necessary. NB: lots of folks this challenge felt compelled to list the entire damn meal. you at least gave us credit for knowing what a devil's egg is. nice job on this image. a tad more sat for the reds would have helped; ditto more smart sharpen. 7

I like this composition; however,IMO it needs sharper focus to be a great photo.

looks delicious - I would have shot it just a little higher to get the wine glass in frame as well.

looks really delicious, in my opinion it would look even better in a sharper focus...but that's just me, i like food pictures that are sharp and crisp, but still a very nice summertime meal picture

Pretty good try, but the devil is in the details: crop too tight on top, strange combination of foods, dof just too shallow.

Pretty scene, wish the wine glass wasn't clipped at the top, but still an appealing scene.

The food looks good and nicely arranged. I would use a shorter glass to pull the wine into the picture more so you could eliminate some of the green background. The split between the green & white is right at the middle of the photo instead of the more appealing top third.

Good time of day to take the photo. Gives it a warm feel. I probably would have chosen to put a slice of the desert on another (smaller) plater to that we could see the gooy-ness of it.
