Weston's still life images are creative and effective. this has the potential to be one of them had the crop been tighter perhaps around the stem and the background smooth with no texture.

the style is right on, but what I first thought was noise, is your textured background. Perhaps there is a better choice?

Weston seemed to pick veggies with human form. I do like the tonality of the picture except just a tiny bit high on the highlight. 6
