I believe that I might remove the fork and knife. They were the first things I notice. The light is good on the protein.

The light on that fig is doing all the work. That soft side glow, the way it's not trying to be dramatic but just lets the shape speak. I shoot flowers on film sometimes and wait forever for exactly that kind of quiet light.

I'd say you nailed the light. That soft even glow is what I chase for hours in landscapes, waiting for the right minute before the sun drops or breaks through clouds. Food photography isn't my wheelhouse, but I know when something's lit well, and this has that clean quality where nothing's fighting for attention. The subject just sits there and exists. That's harder than it looks.
