Greetings from Critique club
When I first saw your photo, before even reading what challenge it was from, I must say I do like it, and I feel it is well composed. Good example of how the rule of thirds can be applied to improve the composition of an image. The fence in the background also draws the eye to the subject nicely.
But, as the commenters mentioned, this doesn't meet the challenge in many viewers' eyes, mine included. My own understanding of still life is something that is inanimate, but also something that seems to have been put together intentionally by the photographer, such as arranging a number of items in a pleasing composition, and then photographing them.
So, while your photo is very good, the score suffered because of DNMC votes.
