This actually looks like a nice scene. I think the focusing and depth of field are good, however the photo is too dark, underexposed, the painting and the Christmas tree are cut off at the top and I would take away that pillow in the bottom right hand corner.

#1: Nothing is in focus, the lighting is too dark, the bottom object is cut off, tilted horizon.


#2: The lighting is better. Vertical portrait would probably have been better and there is too much dead space on the left. Watch the angle of your lens, because it could distort the perspective, see how the bottle looks straight and the wine glass on the right looks like it is going to slide off the table, and the table horizon looks crooked.


#3: Three of the objects are cut off at the top and the one object that is not, is out of focus. Again, the horizon or perspective is crooked.


Hopefully you will find this constructive as it was meant to be,


Rich
