The candle was washed out on purpose... I would have liked to have a purple cloth but I did not have it. Tried to make it purple using curves, but it did not work I used curves to make lemons orange (for the purpose of the challenge)
Well, this lighting is pretty harsh on this one and the shadows are a bit much. I think you could have pulled this off with way less light and a better job setting up your blue t-shirt.
2 - Not sure on the concept. Candle, is blown, whether because it is lit or not not sure, either way blown and one of the first things you see. Fabric is too dominant too, not the color, but the fabric itself. A variation in lighting, composition and cropping likely all have helped this in my opinion.
OK...I am going to be as constructive as possible...the background is not great, particularly in the top right hand corner...the lemons are a bit lame looking and the tea light is tacky...perhaps if you tried this shot from above with a smoothe background??? It's not a good shot...sorry
