The top one is slightly over exposed (compare the pear in the top one with the pear in #2) but the background in #1 is better with a spot on DOF. In the bottom one the exposure is just a tad too dark and the DOF is to wide with the background in focus.

Try to get a more neutral backdrop (white sheet on the table or a red sheet filling the whole of the table. (I have a collection of thin cardboard sheets A1 size of different colours to put on tables or use as a seamless backdrop).

okay another lesson learned, when I paint in oil, I have some of these background cloths, have to clean up my art studio, or I could have easily used one of my large unpainted canvasses for the background....I may even paint some neutral backgrounds like a cloudy sky...that has to wait until I get time off from work. ...73's
