Color Saturation and Hue: All are done extremely well. Candy should have bright, jewel like colors, and that is what you have done here. Skin tones still look natural, so the hues are accurate.
Brightness and Contrast: Brightness is excellent. Contrast may be just a tiny bit high. The brown M&Ms are heading towards black.
Focus and depth of field: Perfect!
I love this photo! Personally I like the gummies the size they are. Any larger and they would not be able to stand on the skittles, and would have sunk into the candy.
About the only criticism I have is it appears noise is creeping into the image. A lower ISO and brighter lighting could help here. At 1/10 sec, the shutter speed is pretty slow already. A larger apreature would have killed your depth of field. On a small picky side note, the border appears a tiny bit heavy. Borders are always a risk in the voting, and about half what is here might have helped in the voting.
All in all a very strong photo, and a well deserved top 20 finish. Nice work!
