play with angles & lights. it helps. it could make a simple subject into something really nice.

I am having a hard time finding a focal point for the shot. Maybe tilting the subject for a more 3d angle would catch some interesting refraction of light or colors.

The composition seems unbalanced and the subject doesn't really hold any interest for me.

The subject is not very intresting. to many things to distract. imo the background would be nicer in white.
