The colors are nice and bright Cynthia! The fruits could use more darker toning. The fruit on the right looks good, and has nice form to it, but I would expect to see a shadow on it cast from the fruit on the left rather than the large highlight I am seeing. I would also expect that pair of leaves to be casting a shadow on both fruits. The cast shadows you have drawn could be lighter. They should be darkest at the fruit edge and fade as they move away from the subject. The stem may well have had a twist in it that is hidden by the fruit, but it is confusing since it disappears at the top and bottom of the fruit being totally straight. You might consider fudging it so the branch has a more visible curve to it or make the stem line up. The fruit on the right is missing the reflected highlight. With reflected highlights they should not be as light as the main highlight and they blend into the dark toning rather than being a thin line. You are off to a good start and making a few changes could take it to the next level!
