Very interesting. I think the haze or fog masks the picnic scene too much. I like the composition and lighting, however. Overall a very nice shot.

+1 on the too much fog. It is obscuring the the scene a little too much. I do like the one lone empty shoe. Makes me, as a casual viewer, want to question where the owner is and the circumstances about the lack of people...

Really cool concept!

Somebody, somewhere outside the frame on the right, is on fire I think.

Cool photo, very moody.

Hey thanks for the feedback, since doing this I have added slightly more pop to the image as it seemed slightly flat.
The smoke I wern't to sure about as it seemed slightly overkill at first but it kind of grew on me.. Need to sort out my next still life shoot.

Thats just my lighting on fire AJ ;)

I like the smoke. But when I scroll that down on my laptop I like the whole thing even better with no sky showing. Just a thought. Great staging, I think I might stand the apple up. You have one too many things 'fallen' to the right. Maybe stand the shoe up too. I'm sure it has a great profile shape. Overall I like this quite a bit though.
