Nice shot, but I find filling the whole frame with the subject might not have been the way to go - perhaps smaller and off-center or place it in some kind of environment - Still good though!!

This is an OK shot. I like the layout and balance of the subject and they are well lit. IMO the problem is with the tomatoes themselves. Although vibrant with colour, they appear to have a matte finish. One good trick I have used is to wipe them with an oil (probably Olive oil)and they become much more reflective. You could at that stage also spray them with water to give them that just picked look.

Tomatoes look plumpy, fresh but not the stems. Would given 10 if not for the stems.
