Yum! Very appetising as always Sweety. Beautifully arranged and displayed, lovely crisp details and excellent light, although I do have to say the colours - the blue towel and the yellow drink - don't look so harmonious to me.
But still excellent work my friend!
I hope all is going ok for you

Hi Sweety, Doesn't this look irresistible! Perfect composition and exposure. Would love to join you. Kind regards,

Hi Sweety,
Another stunning food foto, the colours you chose make the cookies look scrumptious, and the drink so refreshing.
Have you discovered a way of excluding the calories? ;)

I MUST make these biscuits one day - I've bought the chocolate chips a few times and ended up eating them!!! NO will-power!

I like this composition Sweety Pie. Very pretty colours using the blue cloth and your 'potato vine flower' looks attractive there too. And the Cookies - yummy!

Will you be baking these for when Hansie comes Sweety? lol..Now I have to agree with Rew here, something about the colours dont balance that green drink, and the blue of the tray or is it a mat that they sit on.. and also I see the glass as misshapen ? on the left, my eye is drawn to that..just observations Sweety.. the composition/layout is good, and as always your photos with food, are very tempting..those cookies look so yummy!

Cheers
Dawn.

jan

Yum, Yumm, Yummy! :)
I can always take a break for tea and cookies, especially if they're coming from you! :) You have great talent in displaying food and this is one more shot to prove it! Love both the composition and colors! I bet you're equally talented as a cook. Those wonderful things you're showing us must be twice as good as they look, and that's because you put so much love into doing it!
Thank you, and stay well!
Diana
