No, the "secrets" are supposed to be on the saucer. That is the reason behind the title. Other wise it would of been called " A Cup full of Secrets".

Also, my dof was purposeful. I wanted to have the eye see the 'secrets' and just make out the soft image of a cup, and a spoon. The 'secrets' and the 'saucer' were more important than the cup, and spoon.

I really like the creative use of papers on the saucer. If this had just a tad more breathing room around cup (white space) and the focus sharper, I think you'd be in serious contention.

Very literal, yes, but it kind of works although I get no sense of what the meaning should be. Other than that, the lighting on the mug is a little awkward. 5

had the "secrets" been in focus moreso than the cup, and the spoon been a little LESS out of focus i think this would have done better imo. 5

I don't care so much for the DOF here but I really like the "real" look to the words.

Quite creative, the crop is maybe a tad close.

I don't like the extremely shallow DOF.

Nicely done! I was wondering whether someone would do this and how they'd approach it.
