Sunflowers are well constructed, and the idea is good. The shadows need work...the final step is too dark with vague blurry shadows. Step 6 looks better, IMO. With a couple of small tweaks it could be your final image.

Thanks Bob. I will work on step 6 to see what I can do later, tip appreciated.
UPDATE: Worked in the image a little more. 
Look at the lighting on the apples and cast your shadows accordingly.
I did. I also added more shadows on different angles to imply more than one light source. It needed a shadow on the wall to bring the objects forward.
Are the shadows not dark enough?
I am sure you have seen pictures with multiple shadows before?
If not, google multiple shadows.
Not everything has just one shadow at the same angle.

At the very least there would be a shadow on the bowl corresponding to that of the apple above.
OK, I will make the shadow on that side darker.
Better? I darkened the shadows on the right and lightened the ones on the left.
Very Van Goghgaly.. hehehehe
Thanks Drivenslush, I'm glad you like the art filters.
I like to work on a still life. For me, (my personal observation), the apples are to bright, and so it is the image. But this is me. You are the author and I respect your idea. Nicely done... good luck.
Thanks George.
Your image looks much better now. Good luck.
Howdie stranger!
