that branch snakes pretty nice through the frame and the red of the chillies looks great. Unfortunately this is not easily to see since you have such a busy background. you need to open up the aperture to blur the background into something more homogen against which the branch stands out.

Hi Michael,

Thanks for the comment. However I am using a prosumer camera, hence the max Aperture is 2.8, which is what I have use.

Aperture 2.8 is open enough provided you use a longer focal length. your camera has a 12x zomm going up to 400+mm 35mm equivalent. try if you get a shallower DOF and therefor a more blurred background at the long end of the telezoom, even though you will loose in aperture.

Ok, I will try it out

thats provided the background is further off, and subject is within focusing range and background is beyond range.
