I have a food blog (
www.dishingthedivine.com) and am using it as an outlet for my photography hobby.
My hubby snapped this for me and I thought the composition was interesting. Question is, leave the pic as it was shot (first one shown) or keep the photoshop edits (pic #2). I used the render function in photoshop to create a soft spotlight effect. I'm VERY NEW to photoshop (as well as to my dSLR) so I imagine there were better ways to do this.
Thanks for your help!
