Perhaps it would feel more "settled" if the berries were definitely above the the horizon line or more definitively below it? I really don't know what it is, but it's creating a little tension or something. I love the vertical lines in the board leading us to the yumminess! Nicely done.

The lighting is nice and even without being flat, and the orangey colour of the muffins contrasts beautifully with the blueberries and that grey background. A really lovely shot. (I'm intrigued as to why the milk didn't look white?)
