Pie the second time around

This is my second attempt at this pie shot. It was for a self promo shot in my photographic illustration class. I shot on my Canon 1D Mark2 with a 100-300mm macro telephoto lens at ISO 100 with my shutter speed at 1/15 and my f-stop at 5.6, I was zoomed in all the way to 300. I tried the pie a second time just because I wasn't happy with it the first time around, but I am really happy that I did.The second photo is of how I set up. I shot at home so I blurred out some personal items on the counter, I also have some flare from the soft-box both in the second photo.

Pie

I shot this photo for a self promo assignment. It was shot on a Canon EOS 1D Mark 2. The camera settings were, shutter speed 2 sec, F-stop 14, I SO 100, on a 17-40 mm lens. This image was shot in RAW format giving me the opportunity to have a larger range for my adjustments. I was really trying to capture the texture in the pie, and feel that I have.
