I like the creative use of the name.......the rose looks a little over-sharpened to me, but I like the photo

The font colour on your text was an excellent choice. Nice Macro shot.
Well done

Greetings from the Critique Club!
...............................................................

This is what would normally be termed a Pack Shot in the advertising world. As such, the aim is to present the product in an appetising way and to show the brand clearly, etc. I certainly think you chose some lovely fat, juicy strawberries!

Your composition is actually very strong with good depth-of-field from front to back. On the down side however, your lighting is flat which has resulted in noise and a lack of definition in the subject. Strong directional lighting would help prevent this and allow you to pick up more form on the bottle without overexposure. You could experiment with the use of a diffuser (to soften the pinpoint of light source) which reduces highlights and hotspots. If using typical tungsten light then you should adjust the white balance of your camera to compensate for the usual yellow cast this generates.

The image is slightly skewed anti-clockwise, but otherwise this could make people's mouth water.

Nice work! Great color and light. My only complaints are the graininess & overexposure (floating cap on the chocolate bottle) - but these could have been your artistic decision, just not one I would have made. We all know how hard these white background shots are!

Very grainy/rough.

This is nicely composed, although you did blow out your highlights a bit as evidenced by the disappearing cap at the top left... probably the place you'd least want something like that.

This looks a bit noisey. Using NeatImage would fix it up I expect :) www.neatimage.com incase you didn't know

Imaginary bonus points for a self-referential band title about shoehorning a flower shot into the challenge. I admire your sense of humor. However, I can't see this as an effective album cover.
