| Looks like you've got a nice set up - I think that the focus and lighting hurt you here. Still, there are definitely some positive things here too. Love the dried roses - nice touch. Keep at it - and try posting some other things in your portfolio. I'd be happy to comment on them at any time. :-) |

Greetings from the Critique Club
Nice take on the challenge...china definately is delicate. Now with that being said I think your composition is what hurt you. A lace tablecloth and the dried roses laying next to a china cup and saucer would have conveyed delicate just as nicely and you would have avoid the busy background you created with the napkin. Perhaps you could even have included that napkin by folding it and laying the roses on top of it.
Your lighting is also an issue, natural light can often be harsh and that is exactly what happened to you, shooting this at a time when the sun wasn't as strong could have prevented this problem.
Your idea is there you just needed to simplify it to make it more appealing.
