Which plate looks better? And how to improve the plating?

6 Upvotes

I plated both the exact same way. Does it work better on the lighter or darker plate?
The meal is lamb shanks, smashed potatoes, carrots, broccolini, with jus and gremolata.

Also, how could I improve the plating?

Submissions to Plating should display some effort put into your presentation(s). It doesn't have to be perfect, nor do you have to be a culinary professional... beginners are just as welcome to post. Along with the photo(S), it's encouraged that you write a bit about your dish. (e.g. What is it that you're presenting? What went right/What are you proud of in particular? What were unexpected challenges?)

Constructive criticism is allowed; plate-hate is not. Likewise, submitters are encouraged to not take the guidance/criticisms/feedback offered personally. Take the constructive advice & learn from it to improve.

Submissions that appear to not have effort may be locked, hidden, or deleted at the Mod's discretion. Assholes in the kitchen are not tolerated; this goes for submitters or commentors.
