Very nicely done. The blue looks too blue, unless your common blues are bluer then the blues here.

It looks heavily saturated and rather unnatural, as though the black levels have been ramped up.

oh, ok! i didn't saturate it, but honestly i desaturate yellow that was too much pumped up!

May be the hard light is the guilty one?

Nice shot! I love the contrast of yellow and blue. Good depth of focus too. Great stuff all round
