I really thought there would be more peppers in this challenge but there weren't so you get an extra point for that. The composition is good, the colour is very mellow! The angle of the stalks to the left creates a harmony here. The little gray spot at the top bothers me a little though. Good job!
There is something very distraction in the left background. More contrast my have blackened that out. Also, I find the colours of the peppers are a little flat. A bit more saturation would have brought them to life. Nice shot, nontheless.
would help to lower the brightness and bump up the contrast a bit... then you would not see the background, just blackness... and some nice shadows might come out to play as well
I like the composition of this shot, and the border is nice and simple. About the only negative I have is a small spot at the top centre of the image - perhaps dust? Lighting is nice and soft. Well done.
