I don't think the color of the sheet works well, seems unnatural. Cool idea, I would have prefered a deeper DOF.

good idea, but it would be nice if the chocolate balls in the front were in focus.

Too many chocolate balls in soft focus. Interesting composition. Lighting a bit harsh from flash.

Good idea. I think a few simple things could really improve this image. A neater surface for the subject like a board or table top that wouldn't get ripples in it. I think if the image included more of the hand and a bit of the wrist it would balance the composition more. It looks like you used a flash making the lighting a bit sharp. I think a light setup to one side would create some interesting shadows across the surface and would reduce the white dots on the chocolates. I also would have focused the camera on the chocolates at the front of the shot. The way you placed the chocolates works for me creating a nice "random balance."

A fun idea, but the technical side of it doesn't do your idea justice I think. The lighting is uneven with harsh shadows, the choice of backgroud color really doesn't add to the subject IMO, and the focus really seems off.

seems the focal point should have been the closer 'marbles' 5

Cute! But the closest of the milk duds is blurry and your eye is drawn to it as a viewer. I think the lighting could be more evenly distributed throughout as well. Nice idea though.

funny idea, but i think it would have been better to have the closer chocolates in focus and the hand blurred.

putting the hand in focus was a good use of dof, I'd like a bit more of it showing. Straightening the tilted horizon and the wrinkled cloth would help.

good idea, would have been better with white cloth, with no creases, for
more effect.
