A bit under-exposed, for me at least, but still very nice

Great colors, the peaches are so life like in color and texture. The photograph is very appealing. The dark back ground emphasizes the subject. I don't quite understand the Cracked vase.

I like the setup but wish it were a tiny bit brighter. Lots of good detail and I like the subtle colours. Not sure you needed the moving tree branch (or whatever it is) in there.

Strange grouping but I like the tones and lighting.

Thank you all for your comments! and votes too!

To answer some of your comments:
- branch comes from pomegranate tree too - that's the state of it in January in California
- cloth in the background is not even intentionally - I feel that way it is more natural :)
- vase is really very light kind of bluish - that's the way my daughter painted it long ago
- here I made every effort to minimize postprocessing - so this is pretty much straight from the camera (if "pretty much straight" includes "Crop, Resize, Sharpen" ;)
