Hello from the Critique Club!
An interesting idea!
Composition: As a few people mentioned in your comments, I think this picture is rather cluttered, and although it's obvious what the subject is, your eyes are being constantly drawn to other areas of the photograph. For instance, mine is being drawn toward the CD in that background which has some kind of reflection on it, and I just really want to know what is going on there. It would have worked better if you'd have propped the case as it is there, but without all the clutter behind it.
Background:
Too cluttered, honestly, people might not be sure of what they are looking at. As I said above, it may have worked better if you'd propped the diskette on something with a nice darkish background, maybe a cloth?
Camera work:
There seems to be a bit dark, although I'm partial to dark photos myself. I think if you had added a bit more light somehow, and had the table covered, you would not have had the weird bright mark just below the diskette.
Digital Processing:
I don't think you did any. You should try and do some experimentation, with levels and curves (those are my two favorites at the moment), and just try and see what you can come up with. You could have made this a lighter picture by just using curves, and hopefully without losing any of the colour.
Overall:
I think this photograph would have done better in a much more controlled environment. I know this is your first challenge, and I am hoping to see a lot more from you! Good work on your first go :)
