Hi,
It would be helpful to see the 'before' shot so I could tell more about what work you did. The final shot as shown is a little busy with the glassware and flowers in the same frame but not tied together is some way. Sorry I cannot be of more help on this one.

I agree with Lee - the "before" images would be useful. I think the idea has potential to work well but the framing of the shot seems a bit haphazard - the roses seem in scale but a bit too large for the space they have to occupy (crammed into that quarter of the picture).

rlarsen,

These are subjects for two good photos, and just need a little planning to set them in front of a suitable (simple) background. Fixing takes longer than setting up, even though I do like to edit.

What you show is a great venture into post work. It's the cut-off look of both flowers and glassware that makes it "iffy." Try same process on a different simpler photo,
