Some recent food photography

I've been trying my hand at food photography for the last week or so on account of boredom and a lack of willing subjects but I'm finding it to be pretty fun. Let me know what you think I would love to hear any critiques or comments.

the cookie reveals that you have very nice looking teeth . i do like the pictures though. i have tried my hand at food photography as well and would say you have done a great job.

Nice photographs. I like that kiwi fruit photo. You could repair that in Photoshop by extending the canvas width and cloning in some hairy bits from eleswhere in the photo!

Good eye

How did you get the background on the second pic? great job on these

I really like these, the Kiwi especially.

Nice work!

I'd love to know your lighting setup for these if you care to share

Ihilg780: Haha, thanks for the comment. Good eye for details

Mike-DT6: Yeah I had considered that but I wasn't sure how much I really wanted to alter my photos.

TeriD: For the second picture (and the fourth) I just added a vignette in Lightroom and turned the blue saturation up a little bit.

Bootsie: Thanks, the kiwi is my favorite also.

Flexipack: For the lighting setups, I went into a little detail on flickr, but heres a recap.

The kiwi: I used a beauty dish made from a plastic mixing bowl with a Sunpak 383 through the back - I covered the front with paper and put the Kiwi onto that. The result would be much like putting it on a lightbox.

The Drink: I used two bare 383's from either side.

The Cookies: I used the same mixing bowl beauty dish here but in a normal upright fasion, and on the other side of the cookies I used a white piece of foam board for fill.

The Strawberry: I used a similar setup as the cookies above, except instead of the foam board I added another flash on the left with the light snooted.
