 I returned "this" to the market and had my money back... I bought an ORANGE, not that monstruosity!

Seriously, no trick on this, just peel the orange, eat it, put the rest around this ornamental ball, indirect natural light from one side, and shot (at EV-2). After that, just minimal crop, levels and sharpen.

Very interesting/ puzzling. What's inside the orange? Good cropping/ composition. (8)

Great imaging & colors! Wow!
Not real sure what that is inside. Perhaps if I knew, then I could better judge it's meaning in the challenge...

well done. it looks like advanced editing tho and you might lose marks from others on it. uper peel looks a little to sharp/cut. <8>

Too contrived for my tastes.

Nice! LIke the colors a lot. IMO more depth of field (get all the orange peel in focus) would have improved it.

The best contrived shot of the overabundance of manufactured photos in this challenge.
Still â€Â¦ it’s a good one good luck.

I think not knowing what the object inside the orange is really prevents me from determining if it was a fortunate find or not.

An interesting idea... what is accidental about it (other than magic)? :))
