In addition to the technical problems, I see composition problems.

You center positioned your subject. You shot at a downward angle. Your coffee is not level.

You cropped off the bottom and left space at the top. Is the coffee cold or should it be hot.

Here an example of the Rule of Thirds and hot coffee with some LR alterations.

      Or this one ?


      A much tighter crop will eliminate a lot of that blown-out featureless snow and concentrate on the mugs of coffee. Ralph's suggestion below to crop in tighter is good.
