composition is a little unusual in this one, as is the choice of tones... not sure such warm orange / peach colours really works on something tha would normally be cold to touch. the shallow depth of field adds interest, though i would have preferred the blurriness to start just behing the curve spine bit in the fork. i don't normally refer the border, but here it's so prominent (and distracting) i thought i should; something simpler, in a more complementary shade would probably work nicer. it does meet the challenge, but overall it just lacks a certain pazzazz. 6.

Total Score = 9
Nice, but I think I would have preferred it if both the tip and stem were in focus too. Or maybe the tip is unsharp because if the blurred border. It distracts a bit either way.
