Purple on red is risky but works here.

good idea and everything is very sharp, but the background being red kinda seems too strong,-it takes away from the focus. A calmer colour would have seemed more appropriate. But good choice for purple!

Purple beans ! I think the red does a great job of qualifying your purple. There is no mistaking it for pink or otherwise.

Neat shot. Very sharp. I don't think I like the red background - it clashes a bit.
