Nice job on the food styling Kevin. (or maybe it was the curry house)
You've made it very hard on yourself because of the choice of background. The seams of the tile not only give away any barrel distortion your lens might have but it also can tell when you aren't exactly above the intersection of the vertical and horizontal lines. (even a couple inches off center will give you away.) And then if your "film plane" isn't exactly level the issues can compound.
If you tried this with an abstract, textured stone with no seams your issues go away. And if you choose a dark background then the food on the white plates become the hero!
