I appreciate what you're trying to do, but this isn't one of your
strongest shots.
It looks like you had a tough color balance problem there. Did you
deliberately place the coffee pot to shade the table from the sunlight
with the purplish color balance?
Rather than trying for the whole table, perhaps you could have come in a
bit tighter, maybe with the toast on the right, next to the coffee, and
just showing that corner of the table.
Maybe if you were to just crop with the lower left defined by the bottom
of the plate, and the upper right by the coffee pot, you could dial the
color in a bit better.
Or alternatively, how does it look in black and white?
By the way, I love the reflections in the coffee, I'd have been tempted
to put the toast by the cup of coffee, and put the coffee pot next to
the plate, about where the toast was and come in tight on the bottom of
the coffee pot and the upper left portion of the plate, with all of the
plate reflected in the coffee pot.
It does look like quite the yummy breakfast though.
