Well, I definitely have no idea what this is. I would suggest a less shallow depth of field. The blurred metal wire in the foreground is distracting. It detracts from the overall design the intesecting wires create and lessens the impact of the red and gold. I'm guessing all that foreground is some kind of shiny gold cloth. It is out of focus and the color is washed out (due to flash is my guess). The overall color isn't so much gold as blah. A suggestion for lighting shiny fabric is to arrange it so that there are folds and then light it from the side and take the shot with a tripod if you need to, to avoid using the flash.
