Greetings from the Critique club
Very nice shot! Excellent composition, colours and lighting.
There is a little noise showing to the upper right. Without that I think it would have been a perfect 10.
A little fill light, very little, you don't want to blow out any of the other colours could probably correct that.
I wouldn't want any more light anywhere else because the rest is quite nice.
Great work.

I love this picture.
I love the grain and texture of fruit. I love the position, and the fact that this almost looks like a painting. Your composition is great, and you have made the fruit really work. Original to say the least. 10.

Clever and very beautiful! I think it's almost perfect, but it needs a bit of noise reduction and maybe just a touch of front fill light on the seeds (dark spots) |

I'm not a big border fan. This is a border that works. I like everything about this picture, the focus the lighting, the exposure. The kiwi seems to glow with a light of it's own. I would love to have a stained glass window just like this. This is art!
10! |

I had the idea of doing shot like this, and have been wanting to do one for a while. It was ashamed that I did not have a Kiwi fruits of the last day of the challenge which is when I took my picture.
I like your composition, and the way that the outer parts of the Kiwi fruit and the seeds take a ride towards the middle. Personally I would have run the picture through Neatimage in order to get rid of some of the noise, and I would have used a slightly small border.
Overall a good shot, good luck in the challenge. |

this feels over-processed to me and the black border detracts a lot |

Kiwi? Nice capture and surreal feeling to it. Great for a kitchen. The colors (must be the fruit) appear just a bit "muddy." |

Wow! so close. I love the neon green. Well-composed but maybe needs to be a little sharper. |

I never get tired of shots liek this. Good stuff. The border is a bit too much & draws too much attention away from the shot. |

Title works well. Love the backlite effect, makes for great color. Well composed. Nicely done! (I personally would have reduced the size of the border a pinch). |

Wow! It's like looking at a Monet - the texture is wonderful - makes it all more abstract. The colours are so vibrant. And of course the composition is excellent - the square crop and cornered design work so well. Love it! |

Very interesting, I like the idea and the way the fruit is lighted up from behind but for some reason I'm thinking this could be just a tad sharper, not completely sharp but just a tad. And the heavy black border really detracts from the overall shot. A 7 |

Nice try. Your colors are pretty good and the lighting is nice. I do think the noise is a distraction along with the lack of tack sharp focus. Good luck in the challenge. |

Decent capture, but this has been done so many times. Too many. Ifind the border too heavy fot the shot. |

WOW. The water color effect is excellent. I'd like to hang this one on my wall! |

This is a brilliant shot, a great macro choice, good colours.
The only gripe here is your border. I think it's far too thick... |
