I can see why this wasn't well received. The knife & fork look like they were dropped on to the set. This is more the idea I had in mind; props to give the image interest, but don't detract.

And pretty much every one of those has at least some set dressing..., so?

Potentially - in particular, for a cookbook, I feel (and speaking as someone whose sole cooking utensil is the microwave oven) that the images should show an appealing end result, a food portrait if you will, and just like a human's portrait where you coordinate clothing make-up, jewellery, etc, you need to coordinate the "accessories" or set-dressing for the food....I believe a food photo for a menu, a cookbook and a restaurant all need to be different.
It's not a one size fits all.
Do you?
And I appreciate your feedback.
They came from a cook book, food photography blog.The links workI'm getting a 403 error on all those links Gryph..

The links work for me.
All three are beautiful photos, but would they be good for a cookbook ?
In the first one my eye kept immediately being taken to the glass of whisky.
In the second one it's really hard to focus on the foreground mussels.
The third one works for me.
Again, they are beautiful photos but they look more the type that would be displayed in an ad for a restaurant.
Please take a look at these.

That worked. Weird......FYI. If you get the 403, go to the address bar, highlight the address and hit enter, the photos pop up then.
