Comment by paddles:
Image contains some pixelation - maybe too much compression or taken on too small resolution?

Even more importantly, the centre of interest (the ball) is out of focus while some of the leaves in the right of the photo are in focus - so there is competition for attention. If the ball was inside your minimum focus length, then maybe you should have moved back a bit and then cropped? Or alternatively, deliberately made the entire image out of focus (e.g. by focusing on infinity) which would make the leaves very blurry and let the coloured shapes dominate?

I think the ornament should be more in focus, and that the flash is distracting. Also not having the ornament in the center might add interest.

Something has gone very wrong here. Or is this maybe taken with a camera phone? The image quality just isn't good enough.

Subject is not in focus and is very pixilated. Harsh reflection in the center is completely blown out.

Oh dear. It's a shame it's not in focus and the image looks a little pixelated. People will be really hard on you about that and some of them can be pretty mean (trust me I KNOW on this. I don't remember if I'm anonymous or not. If I'm not, check out the 'mantis' image in my profile. oh the beating I took.). Don't let them make you give up. Keep trying. This shot had a lot of potential.

And merry (late) Christmas to you too. :)

If you got this camera for christmas, i would consider getting your money back and investing in something a bit better. The pixaltion in this image hurts this photo drastically. This is a hardware or software problem, and not represntation of you as a photographer.

off focus and flash flaws have provided you with a low score.
