very cool, wonder if you could have had some flying up somehow. Got a slight bump over on the left by the last ring but a great image with good lighting and white balance. Good luck.

Comment:
little soft on the flowers themselves and the harsh shadow on the right hurts the image but a nice original idea. Good luck

Salt vs Pepper
by theSaj

Comment:
pepper would win, salt would dissolve in the rain...sorry I digress. Good image with strong subject. Nice suttle lighting, I wonder if a lower angle and maybe from a different side angle it would be even better...just a thought.

All granular...

Comment:
The main thing that got me is the reflections in the lids...you can tell your background doesn't completely surround the items, have to be careful when shooting reflective stuff, also some bright white between the bottles. I do like that all the items aren't at the same level or straight across, gives it more of a real feel. your lighing seems right on but contrast may be just a little flat. Good luck.
