I like the image. The gradation is really cool.
Im taking a guess here. I think that it is one candle/light fixture with hanging strands of crystal beads. I believe it is only one fixture that is duplicated since the beads don't lay in different directions. Every detail is duplicated exactly. Different fixtures wouldn't be that way.

I like the light on the berries, they have great shape and texture. I would love to see a full frame of berries like that.
I have always wanted to make jam. maybe someday I will get to.
Lovely still life.

This is what I'm talking about! Incredible shot!
This is the kind of shot that I look for!
One that is creative, original, and fresh.
Spectacular colors and I love the DOF.

Under-appreciated for sure!
Congrats on the OOBIE!

This is a good shot for a motion challenge, not for a still life challenge.
Still life should be the focus.

sorta still life... no motion blur.
The background color brings out the spots on the larva.
The background has noise.
The highlight on the apple should be on either side, not straight ahead.
Good focus.

a cute collection and a perfect title.
The orange (dominated) colored figurine is on the orange side. the one with the most blue is on the blue side. I would have reversed them for contrast.
The plastic green toy contrasts on so many levels! Great Job!

The collection doesn't seem to go together.
You do have the 2 most important aspects of this challenge.
A still life and motion blur.

cutting boards should be paired with a knife.
The color cast makes me think vintage. something in an old cookbook.

You have a still life, and you also have the motion with blur. Both of those are the most important aspects of this challenge to me. However, a few attention to details could have really improved this shot.
Clean the plate of dust or clone the spots out. I don't mind the crack on the plate, gives it a rustic appeal. clone out the spot on the tomato and lime. and a better dof would help. the focus seems to be in the wrong spot. Its just barely nipping the lime. you have some good left side light going but it is a little flat. You want to see a highlight on the tomato. The red of the tomato is overpowering the image. Red is aggressive and doesn't need to take up that much space on the shot. a plum tomato or a grouping of cherry/grape tomatoes would have been enough. Some things to think about on your next go.
