Comment by JuliBoc:
I think having a plant in the basket would have brightened up the subject and helped to indicate it's use and size. And I think a different background color, or a slight texture to the background would break up the monotone feel of the shot. Still you got a decent score. So what do I know? :P

Hi Susan,

I think you've been a little "lazy" here! :)

Aperture: f7.1
ISO: 400
Shutter: 1/30

Since this is a product shot, you should have been able to push it to:
Aperture: f9 to f11
ISO: 100

with a bounce flash and tripod, you could have been able to get a better shot!

The yellow hue is a little too strong. Go with white background, it'll make the florist catalog!

The crop and composition is good. Angle may be improved. Perhaps having the scarecrow looking into the lens.

Cheers
Eric.

Nicely done :)
I agree with Cheerz about the background, a white background or outdoors (think fall) would have be benefitial to the shot. But besides that it's very nicely done :) Great composition.

Ugly thing (the spider not the image). Good details here but looks slightly over sharpened in some areas.
