I think you should use your surves to give this a little more contrast to make it pop more. I would also not leave quite so much white space at the bottom. otherwise. good photo
Good idea and good composition and cropping. The lighting is very dark and the focus is not very sharp though. I also wonder if the white balance is a little out. The idea and placement are good, just a little out on the technical aspects.
Nice idea. Your choice of a rose-colored candy was great. The magenta cast on the forground does not work well for me - nor does the OOF candy in the immediate foreground.
Because this capture remains more in focus the farther back it goes if feels more like it was too close and out of focus then good dof. Also feel like it was cropped too short on the top and not enough at bottem.
There's too much (digital) noise in this picture. It's also grainy (iso 400?), but that's OK. Grain & noise are two different beasts. You should download Neat Image, the basic version is free & will help with this.
