Since you've asked for comments:-)
This is a 5 shot for me. Technically good, lighting and exposure are on the spot. DOF is what you wanted, but the background is a bit too blurry - I would have preferred to have it more legible so that I can have some context. It's a diploma of some sorts, but what is its relevance to the scene?
Also, the cap is tilted - almost levitating. It is in a very unnatural position, and there is no trace of any motion (I would have preferred to see the prop or to have the traces of motion in the image, but that's just me.)
Moreover, the overall tone of the image is gray-ish. Lenscaps are not the most interesting nor the most colorful objects to take pictures of, so you could have used some livelier color to boost the photo's dynamics.
I hope this helps!
