This is just too cool. Clean and technically great as usual. You ARE going to tell us exactly how to do this, right? The lemon slice is a great addition. I'm not sure about the glare on the glass - it makes it look 3D, but the whole geometric/2D effect is kind of cool on its own. Anyway, 10! ~indi

Great execution of an original and artistic idea! Probably would have liked a little more lighting on the piece of lemon, or the overall image brighter, but just a personal preference. I have only started to sharpen pictures, so I don't really know much about it, I'm just wondering if this photo needs some, because overall it seems a little soft.

O'.....you clever photographer. Neat shot, fun shot, good shot. Only wish the lemon wedge was more of a true yellow. Of course I admire your work here and think it's very good. Justine

Wow, that's pretty cool. Please let us know how you did it!! Should have aimed a bright light onto the lemon to brighten it up. Very cool picture.

Nice shot, Mr. Setzler. You've got the eye for what wins here. Very simple and striking. This will win this week. I like the translucency of the lemon slice in relation to the glass.

A few things I might have tried to eliminate include the blurr at the top of the black/white horizon, the blue cast on the meniscus at the left side and the lemon's colour refraction in the stem. These are very hard/impossible to do without the use of spot editing, however. Still, in a photo of contrasts I feel such things detract from the image. Otherwise, very nice. Good work. 9.

Congrats to this shot, it's simply great and highly impressive! I'm waiting for your 'How to' tutorial, because I have no idea, how this effect was achieved! - nds
