| Seems to have a yellowish cast. Maybe using a grey card in a test shot would allow correction of white balance in post processing. Might benefit from more careful placement of the various elements of the still life. |

| The lighting is a little too harsh. Perhaps diffusing it would help |

| The yellow apple really stands out but I think the red background takes away from the red apples. |

| The shadow from your flash/lighting behind the pineapple is distracting. Also, the shadow from the crease in your material is distracting. |

| I can see where you were going with this, but you just didn't get there. A still life is a good idea, but random lettuce and such tossed onto a bumpy piece of red felt with harsh lighting isn't very appealing. |

| Subjects should be little far from the BG. They are almost too close that they are touching the BG. Ligting is little flat. |

| Direct on camera flash. That's the first thing I notice when I see those shadows. If you're going to take the time setting up a nice shot like this, google DIY diffusers for your camera, a 25cent piece of something can do wonders. |

| Try experimenting with different lighting methods. I would recommend both frontal lighting (as you have done here) and bounced top lighting to reduce the shadows. |

| i like your choice in background, but it takes away from the red apple. the pineapple also takes most of my attention rather then the apple. flash seems harsh as well |

| The photo seems very dark, and has harsh contrast/lighting. I do like the soft background. |
