This is my second attempt. My first one was pretty flat and I think the starter was not yet in the right moment to be used.
But this one looks about right? Thoughts on something that visually could be improved?
This is 77% hydration btw.

It might be your preference, but in my opinion, you could give it more time in the oven to develop the caramelisation of the crust.
Otherwise it looks good to me.

Looks great! This could be personal taste but have you tried scoring off-center?

Decoration and spring expansion cuts are an additional skill.

Decorative slashes are made quicly and just deep enough to penetrate the skin. About 1/16 inch.
