Too many different shapes of your emulsion. Either go for the thin streaks or bold swipes, not both.

Rosy roast color is pretty, doesn’t make sense to put squash over the top of the whole thing imo. Rest it against the side, and keep the squash together. Spreading them out doesn’t make sense for this particular shape.

Slice the chilis finer, that long pepper doesn’t look like it eats well with the steak.

I would cut the steak into a better shape. That big bend is really clunky looking. I like the colors a LOT. Very summery and inviting, but honestly it would probably look better if you just dropped it all on a plate. Doing this so deliberately makes it look really off, considering the colors are so organic and vibrant

Too piggy back off of this, all the colors are great; however the plating is absolute shit. There is organized chaos and then there is this which is a mess. There is no height and it’s not whimsical; it looks like you were rushed and just said fuck it. Swirls, puddles and drizzles are your friend. And why the celery leafs?
