Good interpretation of the challenge. The lighting seems a bit harsh, however. I only say that because of the strong shadows around some of the candy.

Finally, someone does green without leaves on leaves, or a mantis! It's gorgeous, and the composition is perfect!

Nice colors. I think I would like it better if the tomato was less centered. The light on the tomato also seems a bit flat. The leaves look really cool though!

I'm not too crazy about the square cropping.

This is lovely with all the green, but I don't have a true sense of background. This is more like a closeup and everything is in the foreground. Having said that, I'd also have the tomato less centered in the shot with more negative space to one side. The lighting has created a "hot spot" right in the middle of it as well. The focus is great and the detail on the leaf is excellent. Hope you find this helpful.

good use of the challenge. maybe a little more side light from the left if it had have been possible.
