creative idea but the lighting, DOF, and sharpness are lacking

I like the composition, but the focus is off on this. It looks like the spilled spices are in focus instead of the spices in the spoons.

I have to say that to me this is a very poor selection of DOF. Nothing really seems to be in good focus, neither the end part of the spoons or the part with the stuff in it so it just doesn´t work like this. Seems your focus point is somewhere on the handle of the spoons... Also not really understanding why you cut off parts of the end of the spoons and have so much space up in the left corner, I would have had all the parts of the spoons in the frame. On the positive side it seems well exposed and wb looks correct, a bit flat though, could use some more contrast. Couldn´t bring myself to give a higher rating than a 4 even though it´s obviously on topic...

Good composition and set up here. I really like the angle and you've chosen good interesting spices to fill the spoons with. I wish that the DOF was a little larger so that more of the spoons were in focus a little better. Lighting looks good!

Nice photo, but without the title, I'd never guess that this image had anything to do with the concept of "too late"

Unfortunately, I think this suffers from lack of focus. The part of the photo that is sharp and in focus is centered in the stem of these spoons, and I think it throws off the entire composition.

nice idea, but your point of focus is misplaced. the angle is fine, but the cropping is out of balance. if you keep on working at this one, you could probably come up with a nice print. definitely a shoot worth revisiting.

I think you have a good idea here, the colours are nice, the shapes are nice, but I also think that the picture might be more effective if the focus where different. It is too narrow (the field in focus) IMO for the photo to be effective.
