Missing a Piece
I thought this was good subject to photograph because of how symmetrical the plate of bread usually is but when the bread came only three were given to us. However the missing piece sort of makes the photo more interesting. Since the fourth piece is missing and the chance for visual satisfaction is lost, the asymmetry makes up for what would have been a satisfying photo. On top of that the loss of the bread doesn't take away from its deliciousness.

Bowls of Thanksgiving Day
The reason why I like this photo is because of the shapes of the bowls and the pattern of the cumbers in the center bowl which bring the viewers eyes to the center. the main star of the show is of course the bowl of cucumbers, but the bowls around it help bring it to attention and make it stand out more. the clean nature of the way its in the bowl as well as the color of the cucumbers help make is stand out against the other bowls.

Appetizers
Compared to the other photos this photo is composed rather messily, however I think the messy nature of this photo best conveys the nature of eating. When we eat it's very casual and never really perfect. Despite it not being a conventional shot of food, I rather like this photo not only because of the lighting but because it makes the food seem like art of an experience rather than something to behold like other foodie shots tend to do.
