How'd I do?

First try at food photography.

I think had the foreground been in focus instead of the center, my eye would have travelled nicely, this way, it stops at the front end of the pizza?

If your goal was to get one row of pepperoni, you almost did it. The focus appears to be sharpest in between the second and third rows. If you wanted to get the whole pie, you need a smaller aperture, which probably means that you also need a tripod.

Thanks for your input, I'll keep that in mind next time. I think I got too focused on the pepperoni and stopped thinking about the whole pie.

Easily done when one is around pizza~

This is a weird pizza. Did you make it yourself? Why is there only pepperoni in the middle...?

I like the narrow focus though. The pizza looks delicious

seems like the aperture was very high? though the pie looks very tasty!!

ps - the cat tails pic on flickr has excellent colors with nice contract

I like it. BUT .... lol. Im thinking you could have turned the pizza so that piece of pepperoni in the back that is near the edge, could be on the front, then moved your focus more to the front. Let the mostly bread part be in the back and out of focus a bit.
