Nice lines and textures. Only nitpick is that the whipped cream (or whites) are a tad too bright. It has this effect like the middle berry is floating bellow the rest. Like an optical illusion.

The whipped cream is blown out, making it much brighter than the rest of the photo and losing any detail.

Woah, the blown highlights in the cream make it look like a tear in the space-time continuum.

I can see this hanging in the lobby of a grand old hotel (formerly a mansion belonging to a titan of industry from the 19th century) that caters to the elite of bird-watchers & botanists.

Looking at this emotionally is satisfying, for it transcends its own documentary qualities. The rich velvet shadows, the gentle yet intense light, the wonderful range of color. The clear detail. I'm pleased you did not fade the BG totally to black. And I like the square crop. Looking at it with the eyes of one who often shoots flowers, I can't figure out how you got the lily pad & the flower at right angles. Or so it seems. So, it's a visual pleasure & a brain-teaser at the same time. Excellent!

I didn't (and do not) care for the harley in there. I think it'd have done better without, actually. Congrats on TT!
