I like this. Creative. One possibility is to shoot this with a complementary background (like blue) to make the lemons and bananas look even more yellow. They almost get lost here. However, that would be a different picture and I don't want to put my own ideas into your shot. 7

Would look better w/o the shadows and with more time taken to align everything a bit more symmetrically, but overall it's pretty neat.

combination and arrangement are a little strange... meets challenge and nice vivid color

Very good. Slightly too much yellow for my taste. Perhaps a different background colour.

Wow! You have some wonderful details and a very nice dynamic range of color tones in these B&W emulation! I have only two suggestions on how to improve the composition so that it comes closer to the feel and look of the original. First off the strand of rope holding the thick ropes together is a bit too thick to really carry off the visual cue that it is about to break. That strand needs to be thinner in order for viewer to conclude the 'tension' is about to break. Next the backdrop lighting of your light source behind it is too much of a recognizable shape of a tight circle. A more defused free form shape with the light source radiating out from the center would give the visual impression of something about to blow or explosively give way as it breaks. If you look at the original it has the freeform shape I am speaking of that gives the impression of energy being released whereas the light shape in this composition does not carry off that impression at all. It looks bottled up and not tensed to the point of release.
