Lemon!

Comment by whagerbaumer:
Very nice. This is the best rendition of a lemon slice I have come across so far in this contest. I liked the back lit ones the most so far, but you chose a good healthy specimen, sliced it cleanly, lit it well, placed it on a nicely contrasting background and it looks good enough to eat. The red could be desaturated a little to get rid of blackened corners and Focus Magic at 100% at 1 pixel can sharpen the out of focus blur on the rind. A 10.

The challenge calls for yellow, and lemons are naturally yellow, so why is so much of this picture PINK????

Comment by Kylie:
I like the composition in the shot and the colors remind me of pink lemonade - yum! The focus is a bit too soft throughout the photo, and it appears that colors got a little washed out due to flash or over-exposure.

I didn't comment during the vote but I did find the focus too soft.

Comment by cheekymunky:
Focus is a bit off, and the lighting is bit dull, shame the colours arent more vivid. If the subject (the slice) was further away from the red background (making it out of focus) it might look a bit nicer

Oh come on, can't just reproduce a high-ranking image from another challenge... gotta be more creative. Otherwise, awful technique and questionable composition.
