I like the textures and the lighting, but I'm not sure about the 
composition.  Imho there are to many vertically aligned objects: the candle, 
the bottle and the vase.

I'm no expert in composition, but this is how I would do it: I would use the 
bottle as a candle-holder (with some dripped wax along the sides, keep the 
glass, the vase and the peaches (they are peaches, right? well, they look 
like peaches :)) where they're now, and add something metal lying on the 
table in between the bottle and the vase, not sure what though (maybe the 
current candle-holder (what's the name anyway? :)), but lying down?)

of course you'd lose the interesting caustics :(
