A nice subject, but rather a distracting background

The sprouts look nice, but that background is kind of harsh

I would certainly have cropped the foreground right to the bottom of your subject. Maybe you also have a colour problem, too much saturation?

Nice shallow DOF. Great color and lighting. The bottom of the frame is a bit busy... could possibly be cropped out? Let the bottom of the shot be right where the sprout breaks the ground- that way there's less to distract the eye from a crisp and colorful soon to be... flower?
