*Critique Club*
This seems way too busy and cluttered for my personal taste. I'd like to see this with about 1/2 the stuff. Maybe just use some of the grapes, the orange fruits, and a few leaves from the raspberry plants.
The focus doesn't really seem to be consistant. The leaves seem ok, but the fruit itself seems a bit soft. Could be a result of lighting issues.
This does appear to be just flash. Not usually the lighting of choice. You could have taken this outside maybe. Or into a well lit area and seen the difference. It would create some depth, and probably reduce a lot of the selective glare on various fruits.
The angle and framing/cropping is ok. Had there been less elements in the photo, it would have worked better, however, I do like how you fill the entire frame of the photo with the subject. Still possible even with fewer elements.
The colors are ok. a few colors you don't really need in there, which does distract a bit from the colors you are trying to highlight. Fewer elements would help this also.

| Very nice composition and the colors and focus are really sharp. I do find the lighting a bit too harsh, however and don't like the reflections that you can see in the fruit. |

| the way this is lit (on board flash it seems) make the whole thing look flat. Perhaps more selective lighting would have brought out the contours of the fruit more. |

| Needs a polarizing filter to remove the glare. |

| Good concept. The background needs to be taken into consideration & worked with more. |
