 I did this shot in my apartment with natural light. Background is a white paper. I wanted to highlight the similarity of the two shapes and colors.

You asked for an in depth comment on your shot! I was one of your 7's in this shot and here is the reason why.

I liked that you thought out of the boxx in this one, it is just not the shell or the cup. you saw two objects and realized that they complimented each other. The round smooth curves of each of them lend the selves to this shot. There are several things that could have been done a little differently though that may have helped your score somewhat.

In post processing, boosting the exposure, brightness will have helped with the white that is a little grey here. Unsharp Mask would have made this a little sharper. I see that you ISO is very high and this accounts for the grain that can be seen. A faster shutter speed of more natural light would have helped this .

You did well with the shadows they are soft and inviting, well done!

Great lighting, no harsh shadows are cast by the objects. You have great vision, but to me this is just not very interesting as a photo.
