Which idea ? This is a cultural idea. I'm not going to invent a crystal glass nor a lotus leaf, while these plastic bottles are here, here, here, here, and everywhere. Just showing how things work -- Basile Morin (talk) 04:59, 4 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Not all cultural ideas make for a great photo. "Just showing how things work" works great for Wikipedia FPs, not so much here on Commons. --cart-Talk 07:05, 4 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Well, maybe because things are not working that good ? Actually, Wikipedia FPs are excellent, too. And most of them are featured here also. But how many photos do we have in this category Food and drink ? Only 68. Really little, but if we exclude all the fruits, cereals, brandys and sodas, which are not really "cooked" ingredients, then remain only 17 FPs of food on Commons. Only 17 out of the 10.000 and more. Of course, I won't be surprised if this new nomination fails, and I don't have the intention to force against. Animals, buildings and landscapes have much more chances of success, for the better or for the worse of Commons. Not all cultural ideas make a great photo, that's true, but stereotypical ideas compromise diversity -- Basile Morin (talk) 10:21, 4 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not advocating any stereotypes, just not feeling that wowed by this photo. In fact, I find many of the examples you provided much more interesting since they are more lively than this rather static tray. The compo and angle of this tray is much more imaginative, light and sharpness not that great though. --cart-Talk 12:01, 4 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
