To be honest, I think I would have liked this better without the flowers. The harshness of their dark/bright colors interrupts an otherwise soothing image. Nice lighting on the bottles, though.

Hello from the Critique Club,

First let me congratulate you on a very score in this challenge. I know you were probably hoping for a 6+ but your scorer indicates that the image was technically strong and meet the challenge description well. My only suggestion for improving the image you set up would be to put a little more separation between the cup, flower, and glasses. Each object on their own could have been the main subject but with the shallow depth of focus you used, the flower and glasses became nice secondary subjects. However, by placing them somewhat behind the cup, they also act as distractions to the composition. You've done very well here at DPC in the short time you have been a member and I expect to see you in the top 10 of a challenge very soon.

Feel free to send me a PM if you have any questions regarding this critique.

Tim

nice shadows......but, a little too "blown out" it seems. Wonder if perhaps, doing a bit of dodging and burning on the upper right hand side might have toned down a bit too much white????
