oh I don't know... there really is good texture on that strawberry but doing this in black and white just seems like a crime.

I like this one. I see the reason why it is a bit overexposed. maybe too much in the bottom left corner?

Great idea and creative. Definately texture. I like the white background and the lighting and focus. I also like the simpleness of this. Also good angle. 9

Comment by AquaGoddess12880:
Nice concept of texture. The shadow is a bit distracting, though. If you add another light source coming up (not too bright as to make it look over-exposed) it would fix that. (6) AquaGoddess12880

The lighting is a bit harsh on this, a softer shadow would of looked better. Nice texture in the lemon, perhaps laying so slices underneath it could of provided a more interesting background. 5

The lighting is much to harsh for this,.. i might have tried to difuse the lighting so as to not distract from the subject.

I don't like how this is set up as a documentary-style shot of the lemon. The two textures you've shown (and the great colors) have good potential but need some creative help. What made your decision for choice of background?

cool pic. #1 problem is the lighting. the shadow right behind the lemon itself is distracting. better to have lit it from the side. or used 2 lights. one from the front to light it and one from an angle to elim the shadow. mag99

The subject has a lot of potential but the lighting is way off to show any good texture. Plus, it often pays off the not include a straight on full coverage shot of fruit or vegetables. Try just concentrating on a section of the lemon with only a portion of it filling a corner of the frame. Then light from the side. The secret to still life is having the lighting go from brighter to darker across the photo. 5...hokie
