Greetings from the Critique Club!
The colors here are just lovely, and they represent Spring beautifully. The purple background is very nice, but not so much as to be distracting. I am curious about what is the bg comprised of, but that's besides the point. Your depth of field (dof) is good, and sufficient to blur the bg enough to make the subject stand out. A slight improvement would be to have the foreground subject just a little sharper, but it is within the bounds of acceptable in my opinion.
The exposure is good, allowing great visibility of the subject.
The composition is strong, with a good diagonal lead line.
Post processing is fine, with no visible artifacts or noise.
As for meeting the challenge, well....in my mind's eye it's sort of a stretch, and as someone mentioned, a play on words, but it comes in close. I wouldn't personally have consdidered this as a "time" picture for my own submission, but in a very broad sense, it is.
Overall, I like this photo. It's very pretty and you did a good job capturing it. Keep up the good work! :-)
Regards,

Grayce

I love the simplicity of this image. Nice layout, good background too.
The depth of field is good with nice even focus. The background though a good choice should be wrinkle free. I've made the same mistake!!!
Perhaps a little more light would be good.
OVerall I like it, but it needs more attention to detail.

I love the detail you captured in this image. Really nice work! The background is good, and helps the subject to pop out. Photographing the frost on red buds was a good choice, since it adds just the right amount of color to bring it to life.
This doesn't typify a "From above" image, since it appears to be from the side. It could be, but doesn't give that impression. In the challenges it is important to adhere closely to the description of the challenge.
Anyway, it's really a nice picture and I'd be proud to have done it. Good work!

Regards,

You chose a nice mix of colors for this lovely still life. Zooming in and "supersizing" the subjects works well here, since you eliminate any distractions.
I like how the carrots are reflected in the celery. Everything looks nice and fresh, and I can almost smell them.
The black background is good as a contrast to the colorful veggies.
For the most part the dof is good, but the carrots are not quite as crisply focused as they could be. As a result there is no real detail on them.
The composition is very good, with the celery drawing the viewer right in.
Lighting is good, colors are very good. There is no noise or digital artifacts.
All in all a very nice picture. Congratulations and keep up the good work!
Regards,

Grayce
