A duck and grapes in a dish sitting on something blue. Seems quite a few people had that idea. Yours becomes a little more interesting since the duck is a 'duck of a different color' so to speak.
The photo seems a bit dark except on the right side of the duck. It seems that it should have been brighter with 3 lightsources. Or I should say, I would prefer it if it were a bit brighter.
Is the small ring in the bottom of the dish a ring on the dish, or the water. It's really hard to tell. That being said, the water doesn't seem strikingly obvious. Not sure how that could be 'fixed'. And that detail is only important for the purpose of meeting the challenge anyway. I think that it's a decent photo with or without water in it.
There's a bit of a bright spot on his shoulder and compared with the darkness of the rest of the photo, it's a bit of a distraction.
Focus and clarity seem good, and I like the angle at which you took the photo at. It's not just a head on shot of the duck on a plate, you added some angle and that definately adds to what COULD be a boring shot. Overall, interesting shot which could stand to be a bit brighter. ~Heather~

Lighting appears a bit towards the left. With 3 sources, you could've had even lighting..6

omg.. dear heavens, i hope thats not actually a childs toy!
on the technical aspects i think you did a good job with composition and the overall quality of the photo, i feel that some of the grapes could have been more in focus but thats not too big a problem.
