What an amazing shot! Considering the editing limitations, you have utilised perfect lighting techniques to bring forth this model's best features. A perfect 10 from me :)

great concept, but I would have liked to see better lighting in this shot. the fruits dont stand out, they just sit there. the arrangement has potential tho. 5

The lighting used here lends this image and almost sinister edge.

WOW! I am delighted with this score! It was my first entry and I am a total Photography novice. My partner is on this site and since he has become utterly addicted I had to see what all the fuss was about. Luckily I had the benefit of his pitfalls to learn from before I entered my own. Plus I was lucky that he would still let me near his camera after me almost butchering it.

This shot wasnt manipulated much at all. A slight level adjustment and desaturation of yellow and red was all it took. Then a quick crop and hey presto, a shot I quickly became proud of.

Thanks for all your encouraging comments :)

hmm, I think I have said this a few times in this challenge.. but .. for me this pic is not plain and unadorned.... I like it but it strays from topic just a bit.
