A still life generally brings together a number of elements arranged by the artist into an eyecatching grouping. A closeup doesn't allow for the element of the arrangement to come into play.

Great shot (poor bat).

Very creative. Inverting this has brought the shadows into being part of the main element.

Contemporary cornucopia!

Was going to comment on the right-side crop tightness, then guessed by the tiny sliver on the bottom that you had to rotate and had to crop more than you planned. I always try to give myself a bit of extra space in case of that. (I'm notorious for taking tilted horizons). Otherwise I love this and am rating it in my higher group.

Guitars By Candlelight

I love the shadows, but the overall shot is stiff somehow. I dunno, maybe shooting from a bit lower angle, distorting the guitars a bit the way the shadows do? I'm not sure just what it is, something's just not spot-on, to my eye. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

Soaring in Still Life

A still life generally brings together a number of elements arranged by the artist into an eyecatching grouping. Ignoring that and considering the photo, it's an interesting subject but could be made more striking by increasing contrast. I'd suggest cropping tighter left, both to remove the extraneous bush and to bring the subject out of center, giving more illusion of flight toward the edge of the frame. Maybe check out info on the rule of thirds. Hope this helps :)

Maybe another lightsource from the right side?
