Composition is good, good focus but lighting I had to look twice on some patches of dark on the foreground chilies (maybe these are blotches on the peppers)...overall good shot,lovely.

I like the colours of the peppers, but I think overall the composition is too messy. To start I would iron the white cloth, and remove some of the folds, most notably at the top left corner. Perhaps also remove the leaves - less is more ;-)

I agree with Tony on the lighting.

Iron! I'm a man I don't know how to do that LOL .Joking aside looking at the photo after your comments I totally agree with you, thank you for your input I appreciate it as I'm here to learn

Yes, definitely too much going on in this picture. The leaves really dont fit in.
