Thanks guys for all the comments!

I took this shot inside of a local tea shop in Athens, GA. They have little plants on each of the tables, so I figured it might be a good contrast to place it next to the harsh metal on the french press.

Less 'staging' more creativity or 'spur of the moment' would be nice.

I love the amber tones and the lighting. It's a very soft, relaxing photo to me.

that is a nice french press, but I would have liked to get closer to the tea for a more abstract composition. Might have been effective. :)

Why is the plant in the background? The reflections along the top and left are a bit distracting to this interesting subject.

Oo, very nice shot. Very nice subject -- much prettier a french press than I have, that's for sure -- and good setup, with the plant in the background to break up what might otherwise be a little too homogenous a colour scheme. I like the lighting on this, and the composition in general.

Pretty picture, but the vase in the back just distracts from the photograph.

Simple but classy shot. I like the tones of gold and tan but find the specular highlight in the gold to be distracting.

Good idea, but, do you need the plant for tea time? It might have been better to include a cup or glass to drink the tea rather than the plant.

Nice composition although I would have a tiny soace between the objects instead of an overlap. What do I know?

I'm having trouble trying to work out the relationship between these two objects. OK, one is made from water and the other needs water to survive. But, beyond that, I can't see it. Even their shapes and colours don't inter-related enough to suggest meaning. Nice sharpness on the metal, though.

Seems a little dark. I think you might have been better off if you moved the plant behind, closer or further away. So it is either in focus or way out of focus. It looks like it is half in focus.
