Interesting photo!
Well, let’s start off with some of the comments already left. The lighting is very harsh here. It is generally not good to have “hot spots” or blown out highlights. Sometimes done by the sun or exposing improperly- the one on your apple was created by your flash. Try diffusing the light; bounce it or if all you have is an on board flash try rubber banding a broken off plastic spoon just in front of the flash.
The focus does seem off. It is sharp at the knife and not on the spoon. A larger depth of field would help with this problem.
Your background is distracting in my opinion. You might have gone with all blue or black but the way it changes right behind your subject is not ideal.
Another problem I had was with distinguishing the knife. It looked like the countertop was distorted and I had to look closely to figure out what it was.
Your colors are magnificent! The contrast looks great and your idea was very creative.
Good luck with your future challenges!
