Nice idea, but I think the DOF is just too narrow.

I like the simpleness of this shot, mixed with the complex dots of gold. a better focal point would have helped a tad

Agree that a solid background might work better, or at least desaturating this one so it doesn't steal my eye from the cool blue candy canes.

Just a quick glance at the thumbnail, I thought I was looking at some unusual spiked plant with the spikes at the diagonal. The closer look of course shows some unusually colored candy canes. I like the way you composed the shot to lay on the diagonal. It adds visual interest to the composition and it also happens to 'follow' the lines/stripes on the candy canes as well. Colors are bold and pop off the page. My only critique is that the backdrop is not a solid color and has 'things' going on in the backdrop that distract. One suggestion is to get a solid tone background so the white and blue colors of the candy cane really pops off of it (black would work best). The second suggestion is that you have more of the same colored candy canes lying underneath the six you see here so that it adds even MORE lines and pop of color to be visually interesting.
